I too am less than sure this is a good idea. Featherweight tune up before fighting Gonzalez looked to be the way to go because while Jhonny starched him, he's more than capable of winning the rematch as it often depends which Jhonny turns up.

I agree that moving to 130 might be too soon :-\ great to see Mares taking on a rated guy in his first fight at the weight :D
