Ronda Rousey to Star as Herself in Movie Based on Autobiography

Ronda Rousey is set to play herself in a movie based on her autobiography, My Fight/Your Fight, according to Variety. It's been a big week for Rousey, who knocked out Bethe Correia in 34 seconds on Saturday night to remain and undefeated star.

Rousey has made several acting appearances in the last few years. She appeared in The Expendables 3, Furious 7 and most recently, Entourage, where she played herself. She's next set to act in Mile 22 with Mark Wahlberg and The Athena Project, an action movie.

Rousey wrote My Fight/Your Fight along with her sister, Maria Burns Ortiz. The book describes Rousey's journey to the top and the struggles along the way, including bad boyfriends, the tragic loss of her father and her push for female empowerment both within the UFC and out. Rousey wanted to sell the rights of the book to a studio that would allow her to star in the movie, Variety notes.

With Saturday night's win, Rousey now has a 12-0 UFC record. She began her career in judo and in 2008 became the first American woman to win an Olympic medal in the sport. She began training in MMA in 2010.

Rousey dedicated Saturday's fight to Roddy Piper, a legendary wrestler who died last week.

"I told [Piper] that and I hope him and my dad had a good time watching it together," she said.

After the fight, Lolo Jones joked on Twitter that she could last at least a minute against Rousey - by running in circles.

Rousey has a tendency to be somewhat outspoken. At the ESPY's last month, she won Best Fighter, coming out on top over Floyd Mayweather. She took the opportunity to call Mayweather out over his history of domestic violence.

"I can't help but really say that I wonder how Floyd feels being beat by a woman for once," Rousey said.
