Morocco declares that his skin is black. The Prince of Morocco addresses Portia by saying, “Mislike me not for my complexion.”
Prince of Morocco has come to attempt to win Portia's hand by selecting, between three, the casket that holds the picture of Portia. If he chooses correctly, Portia will be his wife. This device has been set up by Portia's late father and not Portia. So, in essence, it does not matter whether Portia is impressed by any of her potential suitors or not. The caskets, as it were, will do the choosing.
Since Morocco knows that Portia has no say in her choosing, he shouldn't be assumed to be saying anything to impress or flatter Portia. There is no reason to believe that he is not speaking truthfully. And, what he speaks (a full 30 lines worth!) is all the highest of the high praise of Portia and his love for her. He says:
I do in birth deserve her, and in fortunes,
In graces and in qualities of breeding.
But more than these, in love I do deserve.
