UFC champion Ronda Rousey finally responded to the allegations that she committed acts of domestic violence against her ex-boyfriend.

Rousey wrote in her book, “My Fight / Your Fight” that she got into a physical confrontation with her ex-boyfriend after discovering nude photos of herself on his computer, according to UPROXX. Rousey wrote that her ex-boyfriend attempted to stop her from leaving. (RELATED: Ronda Rousey Demolishes Feminist Reporter’s Question About Gender Pay Gap)

Rousey wrote in the book:

He wouldn’t move. I punched him in the face with a straight right, then a left hook. He staggered back and fell against the door. I slapped him with my right hand. He still wouldn’t move. Then I grabbed him by the neck of his hoodie, kneed him in the face, and tossed him aside on the kitchen floor.

Rousey then addressed the incident at UFC 193 media day on Thursday in Melbourne, Australia stating:

If someone is blocking you into an apartment and not letting you leave, you’re entitled to defend yourself and find a way out. If you’re trying to grab your car and leave and they’re grabbing your steering wheel and saying that you can’t leave, that’s technically you being kidnapped and you can defend yourself in any ways necessary.
