But keyboard warriors took to social media to suggest Paul fixed the fight while others discredited the result due to Silva’s age.

Paul, 25, said on The MMA Hour: “I think smart people with intelligence are giving me props and respect.

“There are the people who will always be there in my career who are discrediting it.

“Now, they’re saying it was rigged. It went from, ‘Jake’s going to get knocked out by Anderson,’ to, ‘Oh, that was rigged.’”

Paul was forced to deny baseless allegations of match fixing after his wins over former UFC pair Ben Askren, 38, and Tyron Woodley, 40.
