Quick read
Gilbert Burns has revealed he did not originally plan to retire after today's fight but was prepared for that possibility. Burns stated that if he couldn't perform at his best level again, he would be ready to walk away because he refuses to fight just for a paycheck. He announced plans to become an MMA manager, expressing confidence he can excel in that role due to his knowledge of career building. Burns also wants to help athletes with jiu-jitsu and plans to open a gym in South Florida with close friend Wagner Rocha, focusing not just on teaching martial arts but on changing children's lives and futures. While he never previously wanted to open a gym, this mission has become important to him.
