Paul’s wins have come against former UFC champions, including Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva. Four of his six wins are via knockout. Despite such an amazing resume, the Bellator star, Dillion Danis, stated that Paul’s fights are rigged and even claimed to have evidence about the same.

“I also have full proof in writing and in video from his former full-time coach saying his fights are rigged btw… only reason I won’t release he seems like a nice guy and don’t want him in that mess,” Danis wrote.

Furthermore, Danis stated that he will release the information if Paul doesn’t stop speaking about him. However, there was no response from the social media star.
