Calvancanti May Return on NYE!

Following his Dream.2 loss to Shinya Aoki in April, two-time HERO’S 154-pound champion Gesias “JZ” Calvancanti underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL. PDG caught up with the American Top Team star to talk about rehabilitation and the possibility of returning by year’s end.

“My knee is doing really, really good; even the doctor and my therapist are really impressed because I’m doing really well,” says Calvancanti. “That doesn’t mean much though because I need the time to recover.”

With a serious injury that could easily be worsened if strained too soon, “JZ” is taking it easy and not rushing into things.

“I can do upper body, the bicycle, and my hands,” he says. “I’m really determined and disciplined [so it is easy to wait]. I’m going to keep being patient and do what I need to do [to heal] so that I can do what I love.”

Calvancanti hopes to return by the end of the year to fight on New Year’s Eve.
