Boxing gloves have existed since the birth of this fighting sport about three thousand years ago. From what history has taught us, the Greeks used leather bands to protect their hands from ancient times.
Several thousand years later, around the year 30 B.C., the Romans began to reuse the Greek "gloves" by completely changing their shape to add spikes and metal plates.
Padded boxing gloves as we know them today were obviously invented by Jack Broughton, an English boxer turned heavyweight champion in England in 1736 after his victory over George Taylor. The latter became mandatory during the fighting only several decades later, in 1866.
A boxing glove is defined by its weight, which is expressed in ounces and whose abbreviation is oz. An ounce (unit of mass used in the Anglo-Saxon countries) is equal to just over 28.3 grams. The more heavy a boxing glove, the more padded it is. Here is a summary table of the weight of boxing gloves (works for heavy bag gloves), from 6 oz to 18 oz:

Choosing a boxing glove at the right size is not easy. Generally, the boxer is based on his morphology and weight. A small template will focus more on gloves of 8 to 10 oz while a large template will leave more on 14 or even 16 oz.
However, depending on the training, it is possible to use heavier gloves and therefore more padded for heavy sparring, for example. To give you an idea, here is a table summarizing the weight of the boxing gloves according to yours:
