Career
He is the younger brother of Manny Pacquiao. Pacquiao turned professional in 1997. He began fighting in the United States, where his career picked up.
On June 17, 2005 in Cabazon, California, he defeated Carlos Navarro for the WBC Continental Americas super featherweight title by a 7th round technical knockout.
The fight was derided for careless performances from both Velazquez and Pacquiao. Referee Kenny Bayless warned Bobby Pacquiao ten times for performing too many low blows before he disqualified him in the eleventh round.
As a result, Hector was rushed to the hospital after the fight. After sustaining a wound that impaired his vision, he was knocked out in round 7.
Following three bouts in that division, Bobby Pacquiao knocked out Decho Bankluaygym in eight rounds on August 2, 2008 for the WBO Asia-Pacific lightweight title.
On November 19, 2008 he lost by unanimous decision to NABA champ Robert Frankel.
