    Yes Eric was in his prime but Pac wasnt. Pacs best was yet to come.

            Morales wasn't prime in those two fights, and you could say he was past prime in all 3 fights. A past prime Erik Morales is still a very good fighter. His peformance in the first fight was incredible, and he fought valiently in the 2nd and third, but at that point Pacquiao was stronger and fresher.

                No but I think he was still a very good and dangerous fighter in the second bout (the first time Pac beat him)

                  Whoever Pac fought you will always try to discredit his wins somehow. Because you hated the guy so much. It could be that Pac impregnated your mom then abandoned her later on and you was the child. Just kidding

                  Remember prime Morales lost twice to Prime Barrera in close fight. Green and one dimensional Pac demolished the prime Barrera in 2003 like a bum. So what can you say about that?

                  Green, 1 dimensional, 1 eye armed with pillow gloves Pac lost when he move up in a close fight to Prime Morales. Morales move up in weight but his body cant handle the higher weight and lost to Raheem. He moved down again on his comfort zone to fight an improved version of Pac armed with Manila ice and allowed him to wear his fav puncher gloves finally! The rest is history, Pac is the first man who kd and ko your all time fav Eric Morales. Deal with it and accept the truth because it will ease the pain in your ass.

                    Morales wasted everything in the 1st Pac fight, after that, he was done.
