BKFC Fighter Josh Burns Sentenced in U.S. Fraud Case

Josh Burns was seen as just a small player in the larger picture of the fraud case, but was an obvious standout character in it due to his physically imposing appearance. Burns moved money to Dr. Patino from medical labs that paid in exchange for the doctor referring patients to clinics for urine tests.

All in all, Dr. Patino referred more than $2.6 million worth of lab services and Burns had the money deposited in his bank account and spent some of the cash on the doctor’s behalf sponsoring MMA fighters which encouraged more testing at his labs.
