Gilbert Burns has confirmed he did not originally plan to retire after his recent bout, but was prepared for that possibility. He stated that if he cannot perform at his best level again, he is ready to walk away rather than simply collecting paychecks. Burns revealed his post-fighting plans include becoming an MMA manager, believing he knows how to build successful careers. He also intends to open a gym in South Florida with his close friend Wagner Rocha, focusing not just on teaching martial arts but on changing the lives of children. Burns emphasized this philanthropic aspect will be central to his gym's mission.
