Sunny Edwards has not ruled out a return to boxing as a trainer following his retirement last month, with the former IBF flyweight champion juggling multiple prospects.
The Briton was stopped in the sixth round by Galal Yafai in late November, just his second career loss, and announced he was hanging up his gloves in the aftermath.

Edwards, who mounted several successful flyweight defences throughout a glittering career, had previously suggested he would love to remain involved in the sport.
Now, he appears to have a clearer picture of what he may pursue, though he admits his desire to be a trainer may have to wait until he can be sure he is ready for it.

"A bit of managing, a bit of commentary," he told Boxing News. "I’ve already been contacted about coming in and joining fighters’ camps for periods of time, working corners.
"I’ve got aspirations to want to promote. I had, this year, my first co-promotion with the Sauerlands [Kalle and Nisse], when [my brother] Charlie fought Thomas Assomba.
"I’ve really been trying to diversify. I’m quite excited for the future. I don’t want to rush to try to train my first fighter. That’s a big commitment, [so not] until I’m ready.
"I’ve got things I think I’ll be able to get my hands into, and training is something I’ve always really looked forward to and always enjoyed doing.
"For everyone that bought in, engaged, got emotionally involved, I just want to say thank you, and long may it continue. I hope Galal has a great push and a great career."
