It appears his dreams may come true.
While nothing has been made official by the promotion, JZ should be returning on the New Year's Eve card to face Joachim Hansen in a pivotal lightweight showdown.
Now the interesting part of the story comes in that the fight is likely to take place on the K-1 "Dynamite" year end show, so with no official affiliation to the Dream brand, the fight would be a non-title affair.
Many of the popular Japanese promotions have become notorious for changing things around last minute, so for now this fight is just a rumor, but all signs point to a JZ-Hansen fight to close out 2009.
