    Did you know Holyfield only held the IBF, WBC and WBA to become the undisputed champion of the cruiserweight division?

    Ooh, looks like a win.

      Holyfield left the CW division in the summer of 1988, the same year the WBO was founded.

      Not to mention the WBO hasn't been seen as a "major" body until fairly recently, at least in the US.

      Ooh looks like a win.

        Bell only held the IBF, WBA and WBC and was recognised as the undisputed champ.

        Looks like I just won.. again.

          Haye didn't.
          At the time?

          He held them in 2006, when WBO was a major belt.

              the only recent undisputed champ was hopkins. everyone else was an imposter. do you work for the wba or something? just cause they call someone undisputed cause they don't like the wbo doesn't mean you have to buy into their lies. grow a brain. don't be the wba's muppet.

                David Haye defeated Enzo Maccarinelli on March 8, 2008, by knockout in round 2, unifying his WBA and WBC belt with Maccarinelli's WBO making him the third undisputed champion of the division
                The fight, taking place in Mormeck's backyard, and at the same arena where he won the title in March, was an interesting fight on many levels. For starters, in this era of the divided championship belt, Mormeck was that modern day boxing rarity, a champion of his weight class that was not only largely recognized as being the best of his division, but also one that carried unified titles in both the WBC and WBA championship belts.

                Other weight divisions could be criticized for having many title holders, but no real champ. Most would admit that at cruiserweight, Mormeck was, simply put, the man to beat.

                    Jermain Taylor beat Hopkins for all 4 belts so wouldn't that make him undisputed?
