Best bag gloves with very tight hand compartment

Hey guys, im looking for a pair of high quality bag gloves with a very tight hand compartment. I dont use handwraps so good wrist support wouldnt hurt either.

I was looking at these grants and wanted some opinions on them, how is the hand compartment/wrist support on them?

Professional Super Bag Gloves - Gloves - Grant Boxing

I would be looking at the regular size.

any other suggestions would be greatly appretiated!!

*edit* if at all possible being able to find a pair in 14-16 oz would be great as well.

Only things I can think of would be traditional bag gloves in small sizes... and I don't think it'd be very smart to use them without wraps, and there's also mma style bag gloves. All the super bag and training gloves seem to have about the same size hand compartment or larger if you go up in weight. Other than that, you might have to look at fight gloves. They tend to be a bit more compact.

If you don't like cloth handwraps, why not try glove handwraps?

Why don't you like them? Are your hands made of granite or something so that they'll never get injured? Maybe you have a background in traditional martial arts?

Trust the above posters and USE HAND WRAPS.
Now, with respect to bag gloves, I don't own Grant gloves, but I've heard several times that their hand compartment is pretty tight, and Grant quality is second to none. My Ringside IMF tech bag gloves have a really tight compartment, too (and Ringside put them on sale now:

They weigh 14 ounces. Great gloves; I love'em.

My Boon bag gloves fit very snug without handwraps. Not a great deal of wrist support tho.

Not really 'bag' gloves, but the new Top King gloves.

I got a pair, when I first got them I didn't think I would be able to get my hand in they were so tight but they're stretched out a bit now. They're quite large but feel extremely light.

They've also got some of the best wrists protection out of any glove on the market.

I recommend trying the Ringside Quick Wraps. They're on sale (and have been for quite some time) and I like them for extra protection when I'm doing bag work. You can put them on in seconds and they provide extra protection to your fist and your wrist. I'm not a big fan of traditional handwraps either, you should give them a shot.
