Best moments of the first fight between the two
 
Erik was the man. Beat Pac-Man in my opinion at pacs close to most dangerous moment in his career. His other losses he just wasn’t the same guy. Floyd fight he wasn’t in his best plus he was oversized. The Bradley fight wasn’t a real loss but even then he was lackluster. PAC here was a savage and fighting someone his own size and Eric boxed his ass.

then pac like the champ he is got him bad in the rematch
 
I remember when the british (and Naseem himself) went crazy about Naseem Hamad, how he would destroy all international boxers if they would stop ducking him. Man Morales would have eaten him for breakfast. Such a fantastic fighter.
 
Man erik morales put a one sided ass beating on a prime pacquiao, nobody not even marquez did this, jmm got the ko but he was getting his ass tore up before that, and he had close fights with manny, but erik is the only fighter who beat pacman pillar to post in his prime, jeff horn of course roughed pacman up but he just used grappling and dirty rough house, erik put a pure boxing display.

All 3 cards gave him 115-113, a well deserved unanimous decision yet hardly the beating you seem to fantasize - such victories happened in the rematch, which wasn’t all that competitive past the first half, and the grudge match of course.

Yep Erik definitely beat Pac but it wasn't an ass beating, and what happened in the rematch?
 
To be fair I think Erik was a victim of juicing in fights 2 and 3, especially fight 3 Pacquiao turned up looking like he was on horse meat.

Of course Erik later tested positive himself but it looked like a guy dipping his toes into the water of PED's without really knowing what he was doing.

Did you not watch the highlights? Also erik morales would let pacman have moments for fun, like when he switched southpaw and taunted manny.

in the rematch morales lost to zahir raheem first and pac ducked zahir and fought a shot morales who could no longer make weight, and the third fight erik was no longer healthy he was fighting on fumes and needed and iv to hydrate.
