Whether it was solely down to the cut or not Barrera just didn't make it close enough. So you wont create the same buzz, you wont sell 20,000 tickets and you wont sell the PPV.

The rematch is never gonna happen in a million years.
I'm with Fenster, he didn't say MAB was over the hill, but that was what people had said after he beat him, so if he did again he would get even less credit. If Khan gets a world title, then Barrera has to get a win over a decent opponent to get back in the mix for a rematch.
Diaz maybe
He could fight any of the losers from the Lightweight Lightning fights, that would at least be credible. There can't be any more fighting bums in China & Mexico to gain a ranking. He has to earn his shot at whoever is in position, whether or not it is Khan. Yes, the cut was bad, but to the average guy who is going to shell out (and they are the people who make the difference, not Khan or Barrera fans) they need to see something to make it worthwhile, Barrera has to win well over someone like Julio Diaz or maybe Jesus Chavez to make it sellable to your average punter (at least so they could go he beat a guy who fought Mayweather or something)
