The article is a bit misleading/confusing in spots. One of the indicted parties is a Michigan fighter named Joshua Burns, who also is named as a UFC hall of famer, obviously untrue.

Speculation on who the UFC HOFer is?

Edit - another article has a pic of the accused doctor and Faber. Coincidence?

So there's the Josh Burns mentioned in the article. Accused of making illegal wire transfers to the 'UFC HOFer', among others.

Prindle won a Bellator tournament and recently got KOed in 18 seconds in a bareknuckle fight.

Faber was never a UFC champion.

Faber was never a UFC champion.

He was the wec champion and the best in the world at his weight for years...ufc didn't even have the lighter divisions back then...so the wec had the best in the world...not being a "ufc" champion means very little.

Ok, but the video I quoted specifically said one of them was a former UFC champion.

The article is misleading. The mainstream media often equates ''MMA champion" with "UFC champion", not realizing there can be a huge difference.

Neither Coleman nor Faber held UFC gold, but it wouldn't surprise me if one of them was involved.

Uh... Coleman was a UFC champion. He won the UFC 10 and UFC 11 tournaments and was declared the first UFC HW champion when he beat Dan Severn.
