I guess that's part of the drama, but you'd think these guys could fight more often than boxers, especially after extremely short fights.

Well for champions it is different because the UFC has to obviously put together Main Event fights. JDS is probably going to fight again in March/April assuming the winner of Overeem/Brock doesn't get hurt. That isn't too bad.

It just depends on the fighter otherwise. Cowboy Cerrone has his 5th fight of 2010 vs Nate Diaz on the Brock/Overeem card. He wants fights so he gets them. It all just depends.
