That seems to be pretty close to the norm for UFC champs. (Usualy 6 months between fights) The extended layoff above the 6 months is probably due to the Penn/Pulver fight - most likely a #1 contended fight. That way their schedules run about the same length between fights instead of having a fighter go on short notice or a extended layoff.
