Gilbert Burns open to retirement, plans MMA management and gym with Rocha

Gilbert Burns has stated he did not plan to retire after his recent fight but was prepared for that possibility. He said if he cannot perform at his best again, he is ready to walk away because he does not want to fight just for a paycheck. Burns expressed interest in becoming an MMA manager, believing he knows how to build a fighter's career effectively. He also plans to open a gym in South Florida with close friend Wagner Rocha, focusing on changing the lives of young people through martial arts rather than just teaching techniques. Burns emphasized his desire to make a meaningful impact on children's futures through this venture.
