Gilbert Burns doesn’t plan to fight for much longer.

Having invested smartly along with his wife, Burns doesn’t need to fight for money anymore. “Durinho” only steps inside the Octagon because he enjoys the sport. Burns recently revealed that he has four fights left in his current UUltimate Fighting Championship contract. However, the former UFC welterweight title challenger would prefer fighting only twice more.

Burns Has Been Smart with His Money

"Me and my wife — we [are] being smart investing money,” Burns told the Buiten de Kooi MMA Podcast.
