your gloves are what gives you wrist support. Hand wraps are to keep you from breaking your hand. gel hand wraps do not protect all the small bones in your hand. I would ditch them and only use real handwraps. Watch any pro train and I promise they only use actual wraps and non of the gel wrap/glove things.

I also use the Everlast gel wraps. I find they give great support and fit well under both boxing and MMA gloves. The wrist straps fill out to my bag mitts or my MMA gloves wrist straps, so I find I get a lot of support around my wrist area (I have Rogue triple-wrap gloves) and over the knuckles and fingers when doing bag work. As for pros using them, maybe not very many (although they are advertised with images of pro boxers on the packaging, etc), but they're convenient and quick to use.
