The Bellator tournaments are pretty noticeable here: Freire in 2010, 2011 and late 2013 and Straus in early 2011 and early 2012. Each was three fights in nine weeks, something that's only been done once in the UFC (apart from the early tournaments), by Dustin Pague in the summer of 2012. (The shortest time between consecutive fights in the UFC is 13 days for Chas Skelly, followed closely by 14 days for Pague and Chris Leben and 15 days now for Donald Cerrone.) Freire beat Straus by unanimous decision in the final of the 2011 tournament.
