CORRINE LAFRAMBOISE was days away from fighting for a UFC contract before discovering she was three months PREGNANT.<\/p>\n

The UAE Warrior's women's flyweight champion was set to face Rainn Guerrero on the latest episode of Dana White's Contenders Series last week for a place in MMA's top promotion.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

But a routine pre-fight blood test put her dreams of competing in the octagon on hold and on a new and unexpected life path.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old recalled to the BBC: "I was in the car waiting for my fiance and it was like the entire world stopped – we didn't expect it.<\/p>\n

"The day after we did the scan to see if there was a baby or a mistake [by the doctor], and there was one baby.<\/p>\n

"We heard the heartbeat, we saw the two arms, two feet. And [now] we know it's a girl. And she's healthy, no problem."<\/p>\n

Laframboise's baby, thankfully, is fighting fit as injury prevented her from sparring ahead of the biggest fight of her career.<\/p>\n

She said: "The first weekend I was supposed to spar, two days before I sprained my ankle.<\/p>\n

"My foot was all blue and I was unable to spar for the entire training camp.<\/p>\n

"I was doing swimming<\/span>, I was doing more pad stuff. So I didn't get hit, I didn't get hit in the belly.<\/p>\n

"So I think life made that situation happen because all the events\u2026 I think everything happens for a reason."<\/p>\n

Laframboise was, amazingly, completely oblivious to her pregnancy as she was watching her diet in preparation for her gruelling cut down to 116lbs.<\/p>\n

"I didn't have my periods<\/span> but that happened to me often when you increase your level of training, it's not a big deal," she said.<\/p>\n

"After that, I wanted to puke in the morning, [but] I thought it was because of the diet.<\/p>\n

"And usually I love peanut butter and steak, but this time I was like 'I don't want any peanut butter\u2026' and I had big cravings for lemon.<\/p>\n

"And that kind of thing was weird but in my mind it was because of the training camp. <\/p>\n

"I train more and maybe the diet made me feel like that, but after it was because I am pregnant."<\/p>\n

Laframboise's dreams of fighting in the UFC are undoubtedly on hold for the foreseeable future<\/span>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But she's refusing to give up hope of one day setting foot inside the octagon, saying: "I want to focus on the baby, and what's going to happen.<\/p>\n

'In the best-case scenario, maybe I can continue to fight. I know that I'm made to be in the UFC.<\/p>\n
