"In Seoul, South Korea, Antonio 'Kid Pambele' Cervantes retained his WBA junior welterweight crown via a 15 round split decision over South Korea's Kim Kwang-Min. Boxing beautifully and using his classic left jab, Cervantes seemed to dominate the fight. Yet predictably, the South Korean judge scored the fight in favor of the challenger, by a single point. Referee Stanley Christodolou and judge Ismael Fernandez had Cervantes well ahead." -INTERNATIONAL BOXING, December 1979 issue
