14:01 - 14:10 Such a romantic comedy lines I love how supportive Merle is, just look the amount of fondness on Aria’s face when Merle is showing her support
I hope Aria sticks with MMA. This was an incredible series. I want to follow him and his opponent through their journeys, regardless how many losses or wins they achieve. Thanks for inspiring us to break out of our shells.
@@CombatSportsNerd i mean there is charm to fighting in the cage win or lose your still stronger than the guy who watches the fights but wont step in themselves so like i see why he's sticking with it
Next fight, here’s what will be different: -Longer preparation -Additional coach with learning different grappling and choke holds -Aria and Merle will be a thing 😆
When merle said those words of encouragement plus the music, it moved my heart, not because of the ship, but because how sincere and hopeful that was, added with aria’s afterthoughts, and Aria seemed so touched by it. It’s the small moments you know.
he plans on returning to the ring at some point. so while he might not have a rematch, we'll hopefully see him have at it in a much better form with a different opponent
The dude was going easy on Aria... Aria has a really good body for sure but fighting is all about experience and attitude. Most fighters train since they were children and to compete with them you have to be either very talented or have long experience like them. That’s reality. To think that you can beat a real fighter is quite naive. But I don’t want discourage Aria in any way. I have huge respect for him and his accomplishment and I can see him possibly fight a way weaker opponent and actually beat him if he keeps training very hard.
I think there's something about Aria that a lot of us see in ourselves or want to see. Feeling doubted, having doubts in yourself, and being in vulnerable positions where other people won't think you'll do it. Then he does it, loses, badly frankly, not just in front of others but the entire internet and holds his head high and tells his story and gets the girl.
Man when I saw Aria got choked in a standing guillotine. All I thought was dang, he definitely just got out experienced. Would have been nice to see him go a bit longer to show more of what he is capable of.
Aria, after the first video I contacted you and you replied immediately with so much support. We discussed my journey to American Ninja warrior. Your replies were so amazing and motivating. I invited you to train with me as I push to hit my buzzer on ANW. But, after seeing this video and the passion on your face, YOU HAVE TO FIGHT AGAIN. I would be honored to see that fight in person when it happens. THANK YOU SO MUCH ARIA!!!!!
that was cute *"Just don't get choked out again, please."* her request was so mild and cute, but seemingly sincere. only reason I saw this again was because I just saw their video where they confirmed they were going out.
Do not stop doing this! 4 months is not a long time to train, but you did it and you went in the cage. Not alot of people can say they did it but you can. Train harder and longer for your next fight. We are here supporting you! On a lighter note, that girl you talking to is cute ;-)
When I watched the original transformation video.. I was most impressed with the fact, that his RETIRED fight coach actually decided to coach again. That shows how much of an impact Aria and all this work had.
Lowkey feel like this follow up was made just because his coworkers were salty about recieving backlash for not being supportive... smh. But good on you for training this hard, respect 🙌🙌
I'm quite impartial to most of Buzzfeed's contents but with that said, this is by far the best video series they've produced. You truly live when you actively overcome adversities and challenges in life. Aria, you've got a taste of it now and like one of your trainers in the video said, this will leak into all facets of your life in a positive way. Keep up the good fight.
I'm proud of Aria! It doesn't matter if he lost his first fight. He can easily come back the next time and be better. His dedication to his training/diet is something that we should look as inspiration!! Also it's good that he recognizes he needs more grappling in his training because no one wants to get chocked out. Much love Aria and team!
This is one of my new favorite BuzzFeed videos love the work and passion Arya put into this and I hope you do more to further improve your life with fitness.
So strong minded and focused, I look up to you. Never in my life do I think I have been this dedicated in anything. Ur a brilliant human being, keep being you.
Wow, thank you Buzzfeed for featuring my question at 5:33 and thank you Aria for answering my question! You did great Aria! Only warriors have the courage to step into the octagon. Win or lose, you learn and improve that's the most important thing! Hope to see you fight again! Oss
@@bluebotlivingston6016 And more than 50% is personality; he went from a nice, and funny guy to a nice, funny guy who can take and throw a punch and who's willing to face someone .
This video inspired me to pursue my interest in mma. It's been in my bucketlist for years. Currently, I have already underwent 2 months of boxing training, a few months more then off to BJJ or Muay Thai. Thank you so much Aria.
I relived the emotions from the first video, and feel just as much admiration for Aria. Persevering when those around you doubted you had to be a struggle. Aria, you're a warrior.
Oh my god, I just came here after, they made their relationship public. Gosh! It’s like wow, she was the first person to truly believe in him! It all seems so planned , like these two were always meant to be together. I ship them so hard. All the little bits here and there that we , as viewers, got to see, were all telltale signs!! Two people who are so right for each other , that their being together is just destiny.
I used to train different types of martial arts and really wanted to do the same thing as you did, but my perseverance is just way too bad 🙄 what you did is highly admirable! 👏👏
Awesome vid bud, it's not always about winning, it's about persevering. With your timeline and goals you really did win, it wasn't about your opponent, it was about you and you persevered. Amazing weight loss, amazing transformation and in the future, an amazing win, cheers
That was amazing! No one does that well with only 4 months of training. I've been training and competing in BJJ for 6 years and have been wanting to transition to MMA. This was so motivational, Aria! I hope you get back in there again ^_^
This was beautiful! It’s a lot of young kids dreams to fight in the cage and aria showed that with hard work and dedication it’s possible win or lose I hope he fights again!
They don't, but if you've ever seen people just try to lose weight the doubt is reasonable. Look - everybody including the MMA guys said how difficult and rare this is. But the initial reactions build a better story.
Man you are a Legend like this gives me goosebumps I love your spirit like how positive you stay you didn't crash you weren't crying mad respect to that good luck in your next fight ☝️
Absolutely Beautiful. Good for you man. I can tell you are proud of yourself for this, and that is priceless. I don't even know you and I'm proud of you. I used to compete in boxing and mma until my ulcerative colitis forced me to stop and man.. I miss it every day. Go for it man, it's a tiny window of opportunity, jump through it! Even if/when you get hurt or cut, you will see that red badge of courage and be proud of it. Congrats.
The feeling you get when you've worked hard for a match and then win is amazing. I was in Judo for 12 years, i am a big dude and most of my fights were were against bigger dudes. At first, i was tossed around and manhandled. Then, i started weight training and after 2 years of learning how to move against larger opponents with the strength i was gaining, i began to win. That feeling brought me to tears
It's awesome to see your friends be way more supportive now, in the first video they looked really mean about it, you were taking a huge risk and undertaking and they didn't seem to have that belief that total strangers had. Maybe take a year to learn the grappling, your striking looked quite clean! Awesome effort, I never watch Buzzfeed but these videos were great!
This was awesome. Aria, you did something that almost no one else would dare attempt. And you kept your head high even when you knew that the other guy had more experience. That’s a an inspiration.
I mean the fact that you did all of that while doing your buzzfeed work took some of your lifetime for one minute in the ring is incredible. But the way you did it the way you persevere through it I mean it has to be one of the most truthful and inspiring videos of BuzzFeed EVER. IT'S not just a personal story for the sake of being a personal story you shared something with us and tried to inspire us and you did all of that in a very cinematic way a beautiful way and also in a very educational way to prove us that if you believe in yourself go through the process engage into the meanings and the means necessary for that process to go well then there's nothing there to stop you. Then it's only a matter of time. You showed us that it's truly possible and I think that's freaking amazing thanks aria thank you very much.
Aria, you were amazing, in 13 years of practicing and being a huge fan of MMA, I have never EVER seen anyone put together coherent striking the way you did, it's like your coach said, if you'd have had a little more time, learned to roll a little more, you would have known to fight the hands of that guillotine or roll your way out of it, and once free of it, your striking was already good enough to at least out point that guy, if not actually knock him out. Kudos dude, I honestly hope you try it again, I'd love to see what you could do with more time in the gym.
Steve Zim seems like such an awesome guy. Like for real, watched this other video with other people trying to loose weight and as always his knowledge with motivational words he had made it like such a nice experience they were going through. 👏🏻👊🏻
doubting = protection? LOL! That's the different between a winner and a loser in life. Peoples who wanna win in life don't need any protection from anybody. Amazing job aria, you are a winner! Can't wait for your next fight :D
13:35 that man you went against is a really good man. I could see the way he was moving around you in the cage, he was actually giving you time out of respect for the time you spent training. You did great and I hope to see you in another fight after gaining some more experience.
To be honest, 4 months ago I wanted to cut down a lot of weight. Your video gave me motivation. I have lost 12% body fat in 4 months, which I never believed I can.
Awwww this is when Merle and Aria just started talking

A couple months of bjj and he should be more capable of fighting the hands to get out
I hope he will continue on fighting an training in MMA.
He never tapped though.
He just made a rookie mistake by trying to close the distance and not using the jab enough he did a great job but needed a good base in grappling

No just fat loss

bruhhh!! so many doubters even his friends were.. daym!! you just gonna do it and not surrender!

Aria, you were amazing, in 13 years of practicing and being a huge fan of MMA, I have never EVER seen anyone put together coherent striking the way you did, it's like your coach said, if you'd have had a little more time, learned to roll a little more, you would have known to fight the hands of that guillotine or roll your way out of it, and once free of it, your striking was already good enough to at least out point that guy, if not actually knock him out. Kudos dude, I honestly hope you try it again, I'd love to see what you could do with more time in the gym.
Steve: jacob's ladder is the hardest cardio ever
Swimmers: *doubtful noises*
I refuse to believe there is an event in sports that inspires more mental pain than the 200 fly

This was such an impressive display of effort and dedication! Amazing.
Good video!!!! I would love to watch another fight from you. True inspiration!!
Steve Zim seems like such an awesome guy. Like for real, watched this other video with other people trying to loose weight and as always his knowledge with motivational words he had made it like such a nice experience they were going through. 👏🏻👊🏻
How did he do it? Get an elite training team that probably costs what I make in a year.
exactly spend thousands of dollars to lose 5-10 kilos of weight lol....how inspiring
@@29subhra you sound really salty
This has been my favourite buzz feed transformation video. Well done Aria bro! Takes a huge amount of guts to do this!
doubting = protection? LOL! That's the different between a winner and a loser in life. Peoples who wanna win in life don't need any protection from anybody.
Amazing job aria, you are a winner! Can't wait for your next fight :D
I'm really love when see a lot of people keep support and motivate him.. Really hope can get this kind of circle.
MAD RESPECT, bro!!! Cheers from Macedonia.

13:35 that man you went against is a really good man. I could see the way he was moving around you in the cage, he was actually giving you time out of respect for the time you spent training. You did great and I hope to see you in another fight after gaining some more experience.
Yes....
You looked actually really good in the fight and we’re landing some good shots until you sadly got caught in that choke
To be honest, 4 months ago I wanted to cut down a lot of weight. Your video gave me motivation. I have lost 12% body fat in 4 months, which I never believed I can.
