Conspiracy alert! Viral TikTok suggests Anderson Silva took a dive against Jake Paul

Ryan Harkness - October 31, 2022

Jake Paul did the unthinkable on Saturday night at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. The YouTuber turned boxer beat Anderson Silva via unanimous decision, even knocking down the middleweight GOAT in the 8th round to seal the deal. It was another bitter pill Paul forced MMA fans to swallow. And it seems like some are refusing to accept that Jake beat Anderson fair and square. Allegations of fight fixing and taking a dive arise whenever an event gets big enough to capture the attention of the mainstream. People accused Ben Askren of taking a dive against Paul. They did the same when Paul knocked out Tyron Woodley in their second fight. And now there’s a grand conspiracy going around that Anderson Silva fell to the canvas off a phantom punch in the 8th round.
