Gilbert Burns hints at retirement, plans to manage fighters and open gym

Gilbert Burns stated he did not plan to retire after his recent bout, but was prepared for that possibility. He explained that if he cannot perform at his best again, he is ready to walk away rather than fight just for a paycheck. Burns expressed interest in becoming an MMA manager, believing he knows how to build a fighter's career. He also wants to help develop Brazilian jiu-jitsu talent and plans to open a gym in South Florida with his close friend Wagner Rocha, focusing on changing children's futures rather than just teaching martial arts.
