Lopez' trainer just said he's making more than the released figure on twitter.

The way he says 'trust me' makes me think he is making a lot more than has been released.

Some of those guys are making even more money, but they declare a smaller amount to avoid taxes.

It's called marketability, Mexicans follow most of their fighters.
Remember popular=money. Sergio might be one of the best but if you don't sell tickets or PPV, you ain't getting ****.
You don't see that many Argentinians buying tickets or paying for PPV, here in the states.
