MMA enthusiasts express disapproval toward Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson, who has raised skepticism about Jake Paul’s knockout performances, suggesting they might be orchestrated.
The MMA community questions the authenticity of Paul’s victories, especially after Jackson implied that the 26-year-old boxer may incentivize opponents with extra money to intentionally lose.

Jackson, emphasizing his perspective as a fighter, remarks, “All his knockouts look kind of set up. He’s making a lot of money in there, right? What if he’s telling these guys, ‘I’ll give you an extra $2 million if you just [get knocked out].'”
