<p>Gesias Cavalcante won the K-1 Hero’s Lightweight GP on two occasions, a feat that secured him a place ranked among the best in the world in the division. However, a string of injuries brought on the worst phase in the fighter’s career, when he suffered back-to-back losses and went over a year without stepping into the ring. This Saturday JZ, as he is known, had a hard fought battle against Katsunori Kikumo at Dream 15, which he won by split decision.</p>
<p>“First I’d like to thank God for all the lessons I learned during this time I was not fighting. It was a period of hard work, injuries, and a return to fighting… I’m really happy to be back against a great fighter. Kikuno is a great athlete. It was a pleasure, but I’m aching for more,” said the American Top Team representative.</p>
<p>At the press-conference, JZ, who may now also appear at the Strikeforce promotion, spoke of rival Shinya Aoki, who submitted Tatsuya Kawajiri on the same evening.</p>
<p>“Aoki’s dangerous, especially early on. If he sees the opportunity, he seizes it. He’s clever, doesn’t miss positions. Congratulations to him. He lost at Strikeforce and it’s good to see him back.”</p>
<p>Asked about the kicks he suffered at the hands of Kikuno, Gesias said playfully:</p>

<p>Gesias Cavalcante venceu duas vezes o GP de Leves do K-1 Hero’s, feito que o garantiu entre os melhores do mundo na categoria. Entretanto, uma série de lesões trouxe a pior fase da carreira do lutador, quando acumulou duas derrotas seguidas e acabou afastado dos ringues por mais de um ano. Neste sábado, JZ, como é chamado, travou dura batalha contra Katsunori Kikuno no Dream 15, vencida por decisão dividida dos jurados.   </p>
<p>“Agradeço primeiro a Deus por todas as lições que aprendi neste tempo que fiquei fora. Foi muito tempo de trabalho duro, contusões, e voltar a lutar&#8230; Estou muito feliz por estar de volta contra um grande lutador. O Kikuno é um grande atleta. Foi um prazer, mas estou aqui com fome para mais”, disse o representante da American Top Team. </p>
<p>Na coletiva de imprensa, JZ , que também deve se apresentar agora pelo Strikeforce, falou do rival Shinya Aoki, que finalizou Tatsuya Kawajiri na mesma noite. </p>
<p>“O Aoki é perigoso, ainda mais no início. Se tiver uma oportunidade, ele pega. Ele é esperto, não perde as posições. Parabéns para ele. Ele vinha de derrota no Strikeforce e é bom vê-lo de volta.” </p>
<p>Perguntado sobre os chutes que sofreu de kikuno, Gesias brincou: </p>
<p>“Olhe só!”, disse rindo, enquanto levantava a camisa e contraía o abdome. </p>
