Yep. It's bullshit.

But Sergio said before the fight, that it wasn't about the money to him. Taking back his title and showing that Chavez didn't deserve it was what was important to him.

Now that he's done that, he better start getting the big money and bigger fights. The guy more than deserves it.
The problem is he's Argentinian. If he was Mexican he'd be a massive PPV star but he's got no serious fanbase in America and he doesn't speak English, he isn't outrageous or a nutter outside the ring and he doesn't do a lot of trash talking. If he fights people like Golovkin or Geale then he's the left side of the poster but it isn't such a big fight. If he fights Mayweather, Canelo or even Cotto then they're going to make the bigger chunk of the split. If he fights JCC again he'll probably make the biggest part of the split as he owns the belt and the win over Chavez but Chavez will still be the main selling point of that fight.
