I voted 'yes' because if Boxing was my occupation, then surely your goal is to become the best at what you do. These opportunities seem few and far between so if it were me I'd take it, work hard and hope to get something out of the fight.

In McCloskey's case, you never know if his promotor has something else more financially rewarding with less risk in the pipeline. Like when Haye rejected Vitali, he did it for more money & less risk to go to Valuev, knowing having that belt would get him a bigger slice at the Klitschko negotiating table. Time will tell with McCloskey has made the right choice. Maybe he'll fight a Maidana, Peterson or an Ortiz next, or maybe he's been offered big money and main event status to go fight in Ireland. The Irish love their fighters and since Duddy retired a gap just opened up in the market.
