As long as there is no medical suspension or retarded AC to stop you then anyone can fight that close together. Having already made his name and without an exclusive promotion, he can do nothing to hurt any title shots by over-scheduling. Make that chedda while you can Snowman!

I wouldn't exactly call Mike Russow and elite fighter, but the other two certainly are. I think he can get away with it because they're primarily grapplers and its unlikely hes going to sustain serious cuts or injuries that would keep him out of one fight or the other.

He's made of snow, so his wounds heal quickly.
A little off topic, but did you actually know the reason why he's called "The Snowman" is because when people saw him grappling/fighting they noticed he gained more and more momentum and became more and more dangerous like a rolling ball of snow? I read that either in an interview or in Chuck Liddell's book.. but I was really surprised that this was why they called him the Snowman
