please excuse my ignorance but is the oz used to rate boxing gloves just the overall weight due to size of the glove ie bigger hands or is it thicker?

I have just started doing a bit of sparring and am using the type of mits they use in ufc and headgear.

After getting belted in the head from a few solid punches and getting a reasonable headache i thought getting boxing gloves would be a better choice as it would cushion the blow better when i get hit, but i dont know what oz to get, any suggestions?
