Thats the goofiest thing i've ever heard! "Thats like saying he only reason he one was because he punched him in the face more!" Yes it was a close fight and yea knockdowns due tend to give you an advantage duh! Even though Pacquiao is in his prime now,
he would easily have taken care of Castillio and Corrales a few years ago with no problems!
First, morrales was not fading, Raheem would have beaten Morrales at any stage of his career. Perhaps it was the onesided schooling he took from raheem that broke his confidence and exposed him as a one dimensional fighter.
Secondly, beat corrales with ease? PACMAN? nah i doubt that at the time when corrales was fighting and could possibly face pacman, pacman didnt have the skills to beat corrales and probably would have been stopped.
that's the biggest load of crap i've ever heard, Morales wasn't one dimesional by any means, he showed various times that he could both slug and box, all you have to see is the 11th round to know that if Morales still had something left he would have stopped Raheem in the earlier rounds, the only round Morales actually attacked and knocks Raheem down, cleanly, and it was ruled a slip

, and the fact that 4 of his losses came back to back, pretty much shows that it's due to the decline of his abilities, don't know what fights you've been watching to actually try to dub Morales a one dimensional fighter
None of what you said changes the fact that morrales had never faced a school slick boxer like raheem, and he got schooled handedly...he couldn't adapt and kept waving his hands for raheem to engage. Then after the fight said one the dumbest things a fighter can say
"he didnt want to fight, he just kept hitting me and moving away" 
Morralles was one dimensional...that's why he lost twice to MAB i think three times ,twice to PAC, and schooled by Raheem...moralle was highly overrated IMO good, but no way on the same level as MAB and JMM
