How come there wasn't a Whitaker/Chavez rematch?

    The money was there, Chavez made his career high purse at the time.

    Both were still respectively #1 and #2 P4P.

    Had a very controversial decision.

    And neither fighter had a big fight already lined up (which was the case as to no DLH/Pea rematch)

    So what gives? :huh

    Chavez didn't want schooled again, Whittaker didn't want robbed again or a combination of both, I'd imagine.
