Even if he does he’s still proved the overwhelming majority wrong.
Can remember when the 1st half decent opponent was going to expose him, now the goal posts have landed at the LHW boogeyman Ank and HW.
Doesn’t say much about Izzy if he couldn’t capture the LHW belt with an even easier path then does it.
Izzy had to face Jan, failed.
Pereira had to face Jan and sherdog darling Jiri, and new.
Probably not quite yet tbh, but it’s much much closer than many will care to admit.
Izzy has the decent length MW reign with defences which Pereira can’t match.
However Izzy’s 1st reign was ended by Pereira and moving up and capturing the LHW title was something Izzy tried and failed to do...
It’s a mixture of Izzy die hards and those who said he would get battered as soon as he faced someone decent.
First group are emotionally stunted gimps and people don’t like admitting they were wrong.
Genuinely fear for their mental health if Ank gets the fight and loses.
Also don’t think...
When you fight nothing but champs, former champs and top 5 opponents your chances of losing increase.

Coming out that 5-1 isn’t too shabby.
Gotta love those in here picking hill with such confidence then leaving in the injury excuse in case Pereira flatlines him.
Hill wins = ha, see told you.
Pereira wins = muh Hill injured muh ducking Ank muh.
Thats called covering your bases.
Never understood the criticism Islam got for fighting Volk, it was common knowledge that the winner of Islam vs Chucky was fighting Volk afterwards.
Only reason it wasn’t Chucky was because Islam beat him like a ginger stepchild.
