Unlikely, but I don't think its impossible. I don't think there is a rule to prevent a boxer fighting twice a week, with the mandatory rule it makes it even harder but still not impossible if he fullfills his mandatory in his first defence.

Don't you have to win 4 title fights to get a Lonsdale Belt now?
Was it 3 when Rhodes got his?
Plus, Henry Cooper won 3 Lonsdale Belts at the same weight.
I think now the BBBC only present one belt even if you win 4, 10 or 15, etc British title fights.

Yes
and Yes.
Although I think you can still win more than one if you do it in different weights.
