Deep inside I know these fighters can make these fights happen quicker but greed and money obsession means more now than their rep..can you blame them..or not?

What are your thoughts?
The RJJ fight might have something to do with giving Tito time to drop from 210-220 (Which is an assumption I'm making) to 170 and attempt to prepare for what will be another full frontal beating he will take.

As far as other fighters/fights go I mean they gotta rest their bodies and have some time off. Also injuries may occur in fights and need healing.
Other fighters by contracts, for example Ponce De Leon has a 4 fight contract with GBP, 1 more this year and 3 next year so they spread out his fights to cover up an entire year. On avg. fighters (World Class) fight about 3 times a year and thats injury free and everything running smooth, 2 fights is also common.
