Ronda Rousey memoir coming in 2015

NEW YORK (AP) Actress and martial arts champion Ronda Rousey is ready to share some war stories.

Rousey's memoir ''My Fight/Your Fight'' has been acquired by Regan Arts, the publisher announced Tuesday. The memoir is scheduled to come out in May and will be co-written by Rousey's sister, Maria Burns Ortiz, a sports journalist who contributes to Fox News Latino and ESPN.com.

Known for her brash, trash-talking style, the 27-year-old Rousey was the first American woman to win an Olympic bronze medal in judo and she currently holds the women's bantamweight title for the mixed martial arts organization Ultimate Fighting Championship. She was seen last summer in ''The Expendables 3'' and is scheduled to appear in ''Furious 7'' and ''Entourage,'' a feature film based on the HBO series.
