Likely because Roman had a bunch of Paladins. It's the easiest line to draw - Ironwood "owns" them, and Torchwick has them. Easiest solution is that Ironwood gave them too him.

I still don't get why these "Evil Ironwood" theories are still a thing. RT directly adressed and dismissed that, if I remember correctly. He's not evil, just a man of action and very to-the point. He's a Zealot.
