Shark Tank US | Kevin Hart Isn't Sure He Wants To Invest In Aqua Boxing Glove
/ sptv
I give this guy quite a bit of respect, walked in confidently, walked out confidently. He knows what he’s doing he’ll be just fine.
Yup its not a bad idea. It'll just take some time.
@Travel Crawl it wasn’t aggression, he was the last one so he was trynna sell him the product he is passionate about
@Travel Crawl that wasn’t aggression bruh 🤣 he just didn’t wanna give up too quickly 🤷♂️
@Travel Crawl he was hoping from one black brother to another black brother, Kevin will help him out.
Not true. Most entrepreneurs fail in life. The small percentage that make it change the world. We Americans understand this well.
He gave Kevin that look of “I can’t believe you did a brother like that”😂
7:58
😂😂😂
😂 yeah sadly
😂😂😂
He surely did 😂
I think that everytime... like you can't help at all? Crazy. And there billionaires with a B
This man has a really great attitude. He didn't get a deal but his attitude to keep moving on is beyond respect. I hope he makes it. I'm rooting for him.
Weighted gloves is a nice sized market for basketball. He will succeed.
That’s real! Like he said “ I’m still standing baby “ love his adittude
Well said!
A lot of respect for this guy. He was right when he said KEVIN HART could lead the charge. As a former amateur boxer, I like the feeling of hitting a bag, but I can see any regular busy folk getting a shadow-boxing workout with those gloves.
Totally I agree. Nice to have someone like that representing us in Houston
Yea I think he needs to be better at targeting selling to a gym like UFCFIT or gyms which attract combat sports trainees.
He was super early on in his business idea. Didn't look like he had a good way to manufacture them or package them. Hell even with their size make them deflatable and come with a small carrying case or something.
Water is accessible everywhere. They can come small then grow in size. Hopefully he does alright
I use to be a salesmen and I respect this guy so much for that extra effort to close at the end. A true salesmen earns his stripes after the first "no".
Why are you no longer a salesman? What do you do now?
@@assileyacoub4829 Im going to school for clinical psychology. The plan is to become a therapist. Just wrapped up my first year of grad school. Thanks for asking 🙏 are you a salesman?
@@ivandrago4259 Yeah as a trainee so far
Hell no he did horrible😂😂😂
Gotta appreciate the hustle, can tell that the man has a lot of fight in him. I wish him the very best!
What will he do with your empty wishes? If you actually appreciate his hustle, buy the gloves!
@@santimkankaria this is honestly the worst product out there.
@@jakeramos7399 ok,i'll ask.....why is it the " worst product out there?"
@@jakeramos7399 thank you
@@RADIO1990 I wouldn't say its the worst but they seem to just be weighted gloves. I could go grab a couple of 5 lb dumbbells and get the same result. Cost a lot less than $200.
He is the first person I've seen on the show, after watching for years, that has truly been heartbroken after every single out. You can see it in his eyes. He's a sensitive man who really believes in what he is doing. He didn't get pissy or chuck a tantrum, he took it on the chin. I really hope this guy has found success in this.
Like they said if he sells 100-200 at $200 every 3 months, that’s a good supplement to his gym. Not every product needs to be a million dollars year one. I’m sure he’s doing good. It’s a neat idea that I think the sharks missed the injury part. That these are injury resistant compared to smashing your hand against a bag or person.
I personally have done this “workout” by holding dumbbells. Weighted gloves I don’t think is necessary a new idea either, maybe with water. I feel like weighted gloves with sand already exists? But the ability to fill/unfill with water makes traveling easier, if you travel a lot.
His marketing skills is on another level. He just came here and created awareness for his product.
Ngl but for your reg 9-5 people nobody is going to buy ts 😂 bro even boxers wouldnt buy that junk. You can literally hold water bottle in yo hands or dumbell in your hands. Only some rich idiot would drop $200 for them goofy gloves.
Which still won’t become a major product.
@@Dmahmoud17 it's extremely difficult to get into shark tank bud. It's only a start up, 0 sales.
@@mrhumble2937 horrible product
@@mrhumble2937 yup. thank the producers. nothing genius about applying to shark tank. every entrepeneur in the country would try
That fact that he made it onto the show itself makes him a winner. Other investors will see it and come up with an excellent marketing strategy
As a boxer it seems like a good idea to have but I think he should market it more as a workout accessory rather than a REPLACEMENT for a heavy bag cause in theory it seems great but the benefits of a heavy bag are that it helps you with gauging distance allows you to practice combos while feeling the impact of hitting an object and gathering back into your stance you could honestly get the same results shadowboxing with 3 pound weights in your hands, respect him for trying to find a solution though cause it definitely is an issue
Wouldn't this really hurt your shoulders throwing a weights against no resistance.
The Bag also helps drill into you how to properly throw a punch.
He said he missed out on a few years due to hand injuries. Well those injuries may have prevented that from happening in the middle of a fight because he learned how not to punch.
I talk from experience. Mistakes help you grow and those injuries were part of it.
He should get Jake Paul to endorse it. The GOAT!
@@ShayanGivehchian hurts your shoulders a lot more to hit a heavy bag.
@@williamofhler5613 but you don't have to pull back on your punches.
If I had a nickel for every “Tony” that came on this show I’d probably have like 15 nickels, which isn’t a lot but still odd that there are that many Tonys
Toe knee

Big respect to the dude, took it as a champ
4:14 "So you were a professional boxer who had hand injuries and you own a boxing gym. But what's your background and how did you get involved in this?"
😂😂😂 .
😂
Barbra zoned me out with that lol
Yes
Tony: "Once again, my name is Tony, the black stallion... ... ... boxing gym."
Barbara: "Right, I get all that, but what is your background and how did you get involved in this?"
Tony: "Someone get Barbara a doctor."
Kevin Hart is such a great attention to the shark tank. The guy star power plus a tycoon is the combo for success.
You mean "addition" ?
Huh? 😂
@@nikhilkulkarni7628 It came out attention for some reason. LOL. Pretty amazing insight on how the brain works. Addition and attention are probably stored in close proximity in the brain. So words are stored in blocks rather than constructed using syllables. When you type without focus, it is possible to confuse the two, especially in a context where they are related. "Kevin Hart brings a lot attention hence is a great addition."
@Prince of 1000 Enemies ikr
@@TemplarX2 oh man you must be a headache to be around… you could’ve simply said “oh yup, I did mean addition” instead you gave a super lame, very poorly explained excuse lol attention & addition are not interchangeable
He's impressive & so respectful.A real gentleman .
I think this guy's problem was, he pitched these gloves as something to use "instead" of the heavy bag. He should have pitched them as something that you CAN use with the heavy bag, only the water reduces the impact to your hands & they make the heavy bag workout more beneficial by increasing speed, strength, & endurance. AND they even enhance shadow boxing! (Providing they don't bust while hitting the heavy bag)
See I was expecting it to be just that too. Had it been what you said I would've totally been on board
Would have to be a pretty tough water bladder in the gloves for that to work
@@adamg574 Or it would just need to be pliable, flexable enough to allow the water to disperse and move about. As opposed to, being filled tightly to capacity, where one punch would pop it.
hit the heavy bag with those and they'll burst right away, you literally have two water balloons attached to your hands
@@loncho5079 I wouldn't want to exercise with something where water is splashing around in an overly-large compartment. Your design goal and his design goal are mutually exclusive.
Kevin missed the boat on this one. He and the Rock should get on board and endorse this. Big time sales would follow.
Good product. I would like one of these. It's hard to install a punching bag anywhere.
To say about someone who earns hundreds of millions of dollars a year that he missed something......why should a very rich person do something he doesn't enjoy and doesn't believe in and of course most of the things that Kevin and Dwayne would sell were sold in bulk , but they have 1000 better options to make much more money So why would he do that
@@phiklik1 you obviously don't understand how they got to have those millions. My mother always says it's better to be quiet than to sound stupid.
@@brianolson3302 I think everyone knows how they got the millions they have, but that doesn't mean they have to sponsor every stupid thing someone comes up with. When I listen to you like that, I understand why your mother said that to you.
@@phiklik1 stupid ? His invention was far from stupid. I boxed for 5 years did mma for 6. Great invention. Kevin hart isn't as developed as the rest of sharks. He follows whatever mark Cuban has to say
My gosh the good energy this guy vibrates is incredible. Smooth marketing, very strong character and a brilliant mind , hands down. I look up have this
Shocked he didn't get torn apart for the 1m valuation pre-sales (and kickstarter not being a great determining factor of future sales)
They didn’t care because they wasn’t going to invest from the beginning
right
I think he came up here to soon
Probably the first time Kevin has ever been in a serious real role. Surprising.
kevin hart is surprisingly mature and knowledgeable for a comedian
i think he had to learn a long time ago that in business he can`t be a comedian otherwise you get crushed
They are miasing his point, as a professional, he lost years healing from pressure contact injuries. Low impact, hi intensity. His product can be an adjunct for someone with a gym. AND YES he doess mean it for professional & non professional. This wouldn't be the 1st time Sharks missed the value of something. (like famous photo, on line door buzzer). I think Kevin H, or Kevin O, or Mark, as he's in sports, would have been a great fit. Maybe good for Mavericks, low impact. This guy is worth backing. Kevin H. who has everything available, Can't compare himself to general public.
I great comedian should be!
Every comedian has to be witty and smart.......
Why is that surprising to you? Is it cuz he black? 🧐🤨
Love this guy no excuses no sobbing much respect
A professional boxer who owns a boxing gym comes in selling boxing gloves
Barbara: “so what’s your background”
Barbara: i dont know why im sitting here. For those reasons im out
lmao
Daymond really should've been in Barbara's chair for this one. And any other one too, but especially this one.
Barbara: "Where is that waiter? He never brought me my food."
Kevin: "Barbara, for the last time, this is Shark Tank, not a restaurant"
Barbara: "Well, all the more reason for the waiter to hurry up!"
What a beast! This guy has all the heart it takes to really make it. Good luck
I think he will go far. He definitely had a good point with Kevin Hart about using his popularity on social media to boost the product, but in the end Kevin was right. Never promote a product that isn’t for you.
This guy's the real deal. The only thing that's stopping him from getting a deal is that his business is way too early to invest. It's a product, not a company. Give him time, he'll surprise you.
This the type of product you find at Ross and they’d sell it to you for $19.98. Respect the hustle tho. 💯
Maybe for a crappy version. Anything worth buying is going to be much more.
Not that I am a boxer. This seems like you can't make them wholesale for 20. And the water weight is unique. As. Pro. I am sure he understands the demands.
The average quality boxing gloves start at around $60.
nah you prob find at academy sports
@@jmharris251 the water weight is stupid bro, don't get finnesse by this dude because he's from a pro boxer background. You can literally hold dumbells in your hand and shadow box and it's 10x better than these stupid water gloves.
True Fighter, rejection is a way for life to punch you in the gut, he took it like a champ, this whole segment was very transparent and everyone communicated well.
It’s so weird but also refreshing to see Kevin hart being professional lmao
As a former boxer I knew for a fact that this product of 6lbs gloves would improve a boxers skills tremendously!!!
I trained with 5lbs weights sparring and the speed and stamina improve crazily! I got the idea from Teddy Cruz special appearance on My wife and Kids TV show.
These guys just don't know what they're talking about. Kevin, surprised he didn't jump on this.
Ikr speed is the most important thing for a boxer by far
@@kunaldahiya310 I dare to challenge that.
Ali vs Frasier....Ali vs Foreman....it wasn't just speed that won those fight but stamina and endurance was the victor for Ali. If his stamina and endurance was anything of the lesser in those fights, Frasier and foreman being much slower would have easily over powered Ali.
Speed is very important but it more of an attribute of a boxer. Of course a slow boxer will have the hardest time catching a fast boxer but a boxers mind is the most powerful attribute of a boxer. You go in the ring hot headed or you go in the ring under estimating your opponent, you done lost before you even touched the ropes.
I was trained once by a 75 yrs old coach. He was very skinny and frail at that time. He was able to land serious punches sparring the best of the boxers in the club by using his head. Countering and using the momentum of the opponents power, speed and movement against them. He fought hands down and barely moved from the center of the ring. Mind, soul and the body follows after.
For anyone who is wondering.... The concept is great and this can help with hand speed and mental energy but the difference is the heavy bag teaches you not to be scared of the contact between glove to bag and that's a scary thing when someone has fear in the contact from glove to bag. You have a lot of growth fighters who have great contact punches but no follow through because the contact scares them.
Right but he said it's not meant to be a complete alternative to the bag. I think it's a good idea for travel/people that aren't boxing professionals to just get a good workout.
@@septidelaucer1267 Agreed, I was just filling people in for those who aren't knowledgeable in combat sports in general just in case you get the aspiring boxer thinking this is a good idea over a heavy bag.
Really humble and respectful person. Best of luck to his buisness.
That "understood" at 7:55 was a sign of a champ. All bout business. Nothing personal. I can see this product being successful with a well-known retired boxer promoting.
Damn. I really wanted him to get some help. But I'm glad at least they were all honest with him. I wish him all the best!
I see this as a replacement to holding weights while shadow boxing with a weighted enhancement to bag drills. It provides convenience and comfortability. As far as hand protection, it may have a slight advantage over traditional gloves, but doesn't replace a heavy bag.
Kevin Hart quietly sent this dude a million dollars when he got home. You can tell Kevin really wanted to help lol😂
Not a chance
Blacks don't do charity
1st time I ever heard all the sharks actually respect a person without insulting the entrepreneur
Great idea! I’m not into boxing, but this seems like a great alternative for those who’d like to train! 💪
Although he didn't get a deal...i still give this guy a lot of respect
Love this guy. Excellent attitude, excellent personality.
This could work. But instead of free falling water in the gloves, have some kind of tubes lining the inside of the gloves, so it's more balanced and you don't have the water splashing around. Great Idea with some modifications
I think his idea was great. I hope he does well. I can't workout with them because I have a tendency to get injured when i sling around heavy things. I loved his attitude and wish to his success.
I feel like this product should be marketing as a workout tool than a boxing replacement of any kind. Cause it looks (plus Kevin's description of it), like a 'wearable dumbbell'. Instead of holding the dumbbell in your palm, you wear it on your hand.
He made a great point that they would be great for traveling as they can be emptied to save space and weight. I've actually been looking for something like this. The only concern I would have is the water movement affecting my rhythm/technique. $200 sounds pricey. $30-$100 depending on features/quality.
Loved Kevin's answer and loved dudes confidence. Shootout I'd buy one of those if I had the money too. Never say never though it is in my mind now. Who knows I might have a pair soon.
No one cares
even if you don't get a deal, you got the ad. i'm watching
This can't replace a heavy bag, it's just weights being added onto your hands.
Respect, he travelled and trained people personally. Pandemic really sucked and I wish him success. He came a bit too early to shark tank. They typically expect sales before investing.
niche market is all. hope this dude turns it into a franchise for gyms owners or something. dude deserves the win. it's a decent product. of course hypertension and injury studies would have to be done first. or just sell every pair with instructions and warnings?? I'm poor so I don't know.
It’s a tough sell for sure. Every serious boxer will use standard gloves and heavy bags. It’s also too bulky to carry them around
He has great humility & respect
I think this is a great product. I can easily see it being a part of fitness gyms chains work out equipment, classes, and physical therapy. He needs to keep grinding.
Damn, Kevin rejected people so respectfully. He made me feel like I never used my brain whenever I rejected someone.
Hey man you earned your respect and that's what matters. I pray for your continued success and drive. Bless you.
He seems like the real deal. He knows the effectiveness of his product, he explains why it works, shows how beneficial it can be, and just a lot of valid points that need to be bought up more often. Best of all, he himself can prove it's effectiveness.
Tbh I feel like just going on the show is enough to kickstart a small business into a major business and this dude will be alright. I might even buy a pair
When he started explaining the product i was 100% sure that the idea is that the gloves with water in are so soft and safe that u don't need a boxing bag because you are safe to hit something hard like a wall or a big tree for example. He said none od that and it's just a pair of gloves that are heavy so I guess that there is 100 more options for training like this for example normal gloves with some added weight on your wrist.
His product gonna have a huge impact and success!I bet this guys would say the same about the water/sand Lift Weights!
Thinking from a boxer perspective The problem is you can carry two 6 pound weights that take up less space then both of those gloves in a bag having something small and ergonomic that can carry weight would sell well that’s why those egg weights you put in your palms to shadow box are doing so well. But with his belief behind the production he’ll sell them well seemed really on fire about what he created which is awesome
He'll do alright in the long run. With no sales yet, it's hard for the sharks to make an informed decision.
He don't do good long run, only stupid people blinded by their emotions and pity towards him will buy his product. Any reasonable and logical person wouldn't buy his product especially not for $200. His product is a gimmick. It's like a toy. You can do the same workout with dumbells in your hand like how stupid are people nowadays.
He'll make it for sure. I hope he comes out will smaller sizes, including those for children/teens. My daughter is in the beginning stages (she's 5) & this seems like it would be great to train with at home or on-the-go. It also introduces alternative reflexes to the sport & boxing method. Plus, his pitch started out with him stating the benefits were to reduce harm to the boxer's hands. It's truly innovative TBH. He needs to carryon; he'll be the Steve Jobs of boxing equipment.
Yeah sure thing
That'll definitely be possible
As soon as you're done daydreaming, teach your daughter how to make sandwiches
Admire his hustle, would love to have that level of confidence sooner than later!
he'd have to conduct a study that proves the added torque placed on the joints from the gloves has a lower level of risk than that impact of a bag for this to get more traction imo
He comes on, doesnt find the right partner but I'm pretty sure someone will be in touch with him to invest. There is not a more common injury in the sport than hand injuries. I think the idea is genius. He's walked out with huge brand awareness. They could not fault him. I hope his product becomes a huge success.
I really love the idea of this. Being able to box anywhere, and it's more effective than shadow boxing, I'm sure of it. And I respect dude for challenging Kevin and asking why not. However I do think that Kevin saying the gloves were too much to carry around, didn't rly seem like it would be too much of an issue. Especially because you can carry them without the water and fill it up at ur destination. Oh well
This man totally deserves to become successful, he is a good man.
I liked the guy, but the product seemed weird. It’s 2.5lbs when empty? A normal glove is 16oz, so its way too heavy to be used as normal. Plus you can just shadowbox with 5lbs dumbbells for the same effect
That helps improve your skills you get fast with these heavy gloves when u put the regular ones on u would be faster and stronger that's simple
It’s so weird to see serious Kevin for straight 8 minutes 😅
You're the man, Tony! We know you will succeed!!!!
It’s a good idea but it’s not something that can replace a heavy bag. And there’s alternatives to this like shadow boxing with light dumbells.
This is actually a good invention and kevin could’ve totally helped make if successful he just didn’t want to invest in a very early stage business
He for sure gonna get big this product is good many people gonna get it for at home work out away from a gym
I use to box, and these gloves seem great. They aren’t going to replace training in a real gym, but they’re perfect for a workout on your own - as both practice and conditioning.
We even did drills where we held hand weights. These are better, because you can still make a real fist. The main drawback is the price point … but people in the boxing/mma community are very dedicated to the sport.
Along those lines, they’d also be great for home fitness - like those “fitness kickboxing” gyms. As a woman, I hate that their customers (mainly women) think they’re training, but most of those gyms don’t teach ANY technique. Here, you could make workout videos - that also double as promotional videos.
Kevin picked up already full of water, as though carrying around like that, he said 2.5 lbs w/out water, portable and low/no impact
Kevin gets a lot of flack but he’s probably the smartest business sense
Cuban
Much respect to Kev, it’s not easy turning down a fellow black man looking for someone to give him a chance, Kevin had the toughest decision to make out of all of them and he was last on top of it , sheesh. But business is business and Kevin showed he is a true Shark!
Leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth when you know dude is beyond loaded.
@@wojtek-33 I'm aware.
Ultimately would have been a bad investment , and that guy knew it. Maybe virtual reality punching bag would have made more sense, since, we’re in the digital age. Those hydro gloves seem like they’d be a good invention from 1999. Not 2022.
@@Xadbox right. They have a retro feel not innovative but sometimes retro is good
@@marcusbrown7817 true
I like that product. There are other weighted gloves out there but honestly, seems more convenient. I would have added a DVD with specific workouts to add value.
lol at 8:03 did he just do a “WAKANDA FOREVER” move before leaving 😂
I feel like you'd get really bad whiplash in your shoulders from this
And people said Kevin Hart is dumb. He is a funny smart man
He's annoying *
Can’t believe no one has mentioned the ‘non contact boxing’ pitch from Kevin hearts movie. I was like ‘this is a satirical pitch right’ 😂
Kevin coulda easily done that and the product woulda succeeded with Kevin’s sponsorship.
From the beginning I knew that he wouldn't get a deal. All fitness products eventually fail from my understanding of watching this show for so many years.
I think Kevin made a mistake. This was a solid opportunity with a solid business partner.
I actually love that product. I always thought of some training accessories for shadow boxing that delivers cardio skills and strength along with muscle memory. I did sometimes train with dumbbells and shadow box but it is not the same. I can think that this guys product can deliver. I would personally buy it.
At the end I thought he was gonna say. " Ok, yall mfs" like that one scene with Denzel.
If we all support him like we say we do, go buy the gloves
Or rob them, that's what your kind does
This is like ankle weights
Much respect for that man.
The “oh okays” was like you lucky we not in the ring show you how okay it is😂
I would def buy these for an at home workout ! Wonder if he’s selling them now 🥵
I would buy those gloves as well
Me too
🤔I would just tweak it to be available in more colors like pink, blue, green and red to start...🤗
You sheep's are what keep these goofy buisness, in buisness. Save yourselves the money and use dumbell as an alternative. Not only will the dumbell work out your whole arm it works your grip strength.
The exposure already made him richer, congrats on even making on the show. People WILL buy
Is Kevin Hart really that short? Especially standing next to Mark.
Yeah, he's 5'2
That “sell me this pen” line at the end to Kevin Hart
Its a good idea however there are the egg weights shadowboxing is always better with some resistance
License it and sell it for $19.99
This man is great person, I very much respect him
I'm glad he left Nigeria and is trying to have a legit business.
I wish him the best of luck and hope he succeeds to show the internet scammers in Nigeria that you can make a living being honest and helping others achieve their dreams.
You are one shallow human being and that's a very misinformed comment. Do you really believe all those scammers are actually from Nigeria or are in Nigeria?
Oh by the way, there are millions of Nigerians doing great things in Nigeria and all over the world. You should probably use google them sometime.
@@dollarroll2000 If you think I am just pretending to like respectable honest Nigerians, look up a video by Kester Amos titled "Sorting of young snails to their various sizes" and you will see I left a comment 4 years ago praising him.
That is just 1 example. I don't want to search for my oldest praise comment of someone who lives in Nigeria.
Good attitude. He'll make something happen if he doesn't give up.
Nobody asked you
He should put gyro and sensors kit, so they can pair with your VR gear..give that extra VR fitness satisfaction
