RP super featherweight champion and Orient Pacific Boxing Federation No. 1 contender Bobby Pacquiao, the younger brother of Ring Magazine featherweight champion Manny Pacquiao, battles WBO International champion Fahprakorb Rakkiatgym in a title fight on February 18 in Pattaya, Thailand. Fahprakorb is the same boxer who suffered a first round knockout at the hands of then IBF super bantamweight champion Manny Pacquiao in Davao City in October 2002 in a mandatory title defense.

I hope he wins this one. Though the belt is a "minor" belt, it could be his ticket to the bigger world championship fights..

Bobby doesn't have the heart, blinding speed and power of his famous brother. But, I hope he takes care of business...he should win against this guy.

If Bobby can win this one, it may be the start of a resurgence of his young career ...

How many people here would care about this guy if it was not for the fact that he happens to be the younger brother of Manny.

If people actually watch this fight from the US, that would be a travesty.

Has anyone seen the Thai fighter Fahprakorb fight besides his annihalition by Pacquiao. He seems to have a decent punch or has he just fought no hopers. Any info on the thai fighter would be appreciated.

He's fed with a constant nutricious supply of patsies to pad his record, just like the other top Thai "prospects".

Hey Maganda,
You sure don't like the Thai fighters do you. It sucks to hear about Wonjongkam not fighting Arce. Well I still think Fahprakorb will beat Pacquiao even though I have not seen him fight, just a hunch. But then again it sure is nice eating a Phillipine pastie for an easy victory. See ya
