It's been argued that the fight deserves a rematch because of the cut stoppage but I never heard mention that Barrera requested a rematch. When he was asked what he was going to do next he said he'd talk with his family and Don King, he didn't say he wanted a rematch with Khan. It's possible that, after sharing the same ring, he believes Khan is too much at this stage of his career (cut or no cut) which would then put his comeback journey into doubt.
Would Barrera Take a Khan Rematch? PolL

True, I can see it going a similar way at this stage of their careers. Prime Barrera would have been too much for this version of Khan I think, although Khan probably isn't in his prime yet. Shame the cut happened so early creating doubt around the validity of the fight.Comment

Barerra would take a rematch, but Khan would savagely beat him for 12 rounds to a UD, or possibly TKO him late. Cut or no cut I do not think Barerra would have been able to take all of those shots he was gettign hammered with for 12.Comment
