In her new book titled “Rise: Surviving the Fight of My Life,” UFC fighter Paige VanZant details a horrific event from high school.

The 24-year old flyweight contender opens up about being gang raped and the subsequent bullying that took place.

VanZant says that a group of boys got her drunk, then sexually assaulted her once she could not defend herself.

“They move me around,” VanZant wrote. "They change my position. I fail each time I try to resist, my limbs like wet cement on my body, my brain a heavy fog. I am awake and conscious, but my body feels dead. I know what is happening but can do nothing to stop it. I have no voice or choice but to submit and pray that it ends soon.”

MMA Fighting reports that she changed her last name from Sletten to VanZant because the kids at school nicknamed her "Paige Slutton." 

Once, she came home and found condoms hung from the trees around her house “like Christmas ornaments."

She got a new lease on life after her family moved from Oregon to Nevada.

“A huge reason I’m getting the book out is because I want to be an advocate for anti-bullying, I want to be an advocate,” VanZant told MMA Fighting. "That’s the main wave I want to start from this. The hardest thing for me was the bullies. That just really sunk me even lower, that no one was even there for me.”
