Let's be clear: Mares can avenge his loss without fighting Gonzalez again in 2013. It's not like he just lost a 12 round war, or was knocked out in the later rounds. He was disposed of in the first round, so taking some time to digest what happened and doing everything he can to try to minimize the risk of it happening again wouldn't be a bad idea. And it would probably be an especially good idea for a guy who was being billed as a pound-for-pound contender.
There are a lot of fighters who have proven that they have balls; at some point it may become necessary for some of them to prove that they have brains too. We know Mares has balls. The open question is whether he has brains.
