Fighting in the US

In March 18, 1932, Pancho made his debut in the US by taking on big-time boxer, Midget Wolgast in Honolulu, where the bout ended in a Unanimous decision win for Wolgast, the decision led the Filipinos to boycott in Honolulu, which caused Pancho and Wolgast to have a rematch where it ended in a tie. Furthermore, he has fought fighters like Joe Tei Ken, Eugène Huat, Ernie Hood, Augie Curtis and former NBA champion (now known as WBA) and Gold medalist, Frankie Genaro.[2]

Pancho vs. Farber

Little Pancho had one unfortunate event as he fought against Lew Farber in June 15, 1934, the bout ended in a tie and has made $1700, which was good for the time and a small town like Watsonville, California, supposedly they were to take another match on the 29th of June of the same year, but when both fighters discovered that the attendance was under 300, they both "ran out".[2]

Return to the Philippines

Little Pancho fought more great Filipino boxers as he returns to the Philippines, such as Star Frisco, Buenaventura De Guzman, Joe Mendiola, Cris Pineda, Little Dado and olympian, José Villanueva. In addition, he also won the Orient bantamweight title against Star Frisco, Orient junior featherweight title against Joe Eagle, Oriental bantamweight title against Joe Mendiola, Little Pancho lost the Orient bantamweight title against Cris Pineda and also lost the Orient junior featherweight title against Buenaventura De Guzman.[2]

Return to the US

Little Pancho returned in the US by taking on Henry Moreno at Honolulu, but the bout ended in a No contest as both were tossed for putting up a poor effort, they both had a rematch which ended in a draw.[2]

Championships

Little Pancho faced Cris Crispin in a 8-rounder match for the USA Hawaii State bantamweight title which Pancho had success in securing the victory and the title, Pancho battle against more big-time fighters, such as Horace Mann, Louis Salica, Henry Hook and Tony Olivera before winning the American flyweight title against Jackie Jurich. In June 17, 1940, Little Pancho met Little Dado for the 5th time as they fight for the World flyweight championship, despite trying their best to secure the title, no one won as the bout ended in a draw. Little Pancho made his final championship bout as he takes on Tony Olivera for the second time for the CSAC bantamweight title, but Little Pancho was unfortunate.[2]

Late years

After losing to Tony Olivera for the CSAC title, Little Pancho began to be less fortunate and weakened, as he only won 1 bout out of the fights between the Tony Olivera fight and his last fight against Manuel Ortiz, he also had a bout where his foe, Luis Castillo was sidelined due to Appendicitis, the fight was ruled a TKO win for Castillo, and after losing to Ortiz, he stopped from competing in boxing on 1942[2] and battled in World War II.[1]
