I'd say no in either case but with different aspects to the match and what it was on the bigger landscape. Matthysse v Garcia was two of the very best in division going in and determined a top dog. I think the eye had as much to do with the result as did Matthysse inability to establish a early body attack and being too conservative and Garcia keeping his head seriously level and executing a game plan. The eye was a casualty of conflict and kudos to Garcia for being the source and then exploiting it. But..on a whole I can see a rematch on places in division, name and credential. Aka..moola! Do I need it to be satisfied as a fan? No.
Of the two I hate Rosados scenario more because NO one wants to see a fight stopped on a cut. But he was brought in to frankly be a showcase and measuring stick, not a top player to Champions. He fought his ass off but I don't buy the inference that he was pulling away or in the verge on an upset. Same with Garcia, Quillin was finding openings as Rosado was getting wider in 8,9 and busted open as he's done in more than a few fights. I don't see a need for a rematch or one being considered. It was a good fight and will serve both but promotion, fighter wise a rematch would in a way be a step sideways for Quillin. Bigger fish to fry and ultimately I don't see the outcome any different. This wasn't a shady cut stoppage and it was as clear as they come. Rosado will again ride it into a decent opponent type fight and payday while Quillin apparently is heading for an explosive GBP special with a Danny Jacobs?!
