Marvin Camel and Mate Parlov fought to a draw in the first Cruiserweight championship bout on August 12, 1979, sanctioned by the World Boxing Council. Camel won the rematch to become champion. Since the WBC was the only sanctioning body to recognize a Cruiserweight division at the time, he is considered by some as an undisputed champion.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Cruiserweight_Champions http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=000854&cat=boxer
