Cuevas needed a guy to stand still in front of him. Julio Ceaser Chavez could box some, way more than Cuevas. Cuevas was bigger, Chavez was best at under 140. Cuevas had big build up, but never even unified title, Palomino had other belt. Once Duran moved up and Hearns came along, they were gone as serious threats to titles. Since Duran was able to move up and beat Cuevas, but not from featherweight as Chavez would be doing.
