Check out the commentaries if you don't believe me.
I've found 4 which say that Paul's apostleship was being questioned - those who wanted to discredit the Gospel were attacking Paul's right to preach the Gospel. That's what was happening at that time.
The things that Paul writes in his letter back this up. He says that he received the Gospel from God, not other men; he says that he didn't meet the other apostles til some time after he had started preaching - so was not passing on the Gospel 2nd hand - but then he stayed with them and they welcomed him, Galatians 2:9.
