Ronda Rousey addresses domestic violence allusions brought on by story in her book

A story from the UFC women's bantamweight champion's autobiography, My Fight/Your Fight, recounts a situation where Rousey repeatedly struck an ex-boyfriend after he took inappropriate photos of her while she was sleeping. Rousey said in the book that the man was blocking her exit from a home and also attempted to stop her from driving away in a car.

Rousey was asked about the situation Thursday at UFC 193 media day in Melbourne, Australia in light of recent articles from Yahoo! Sports, USA Today and the Washington Post questioning whether the MMA star committed an act of domestic violence.
