Early life
His elder brother Jason Pagara is also a professional boxer.
As a child, he was bullied and teased by his classmates,called him "Albert Pagago". This led him to train hard so that he can get even with his bullies. The skills he gained made him confident which explains the extreme cockiness he exhibits in the ring.
During his teens, Pagara won a total of 10 gold medals in Palarong Pambansa.
Professional career
Pagara made his professional debut on August 18, 2011, at the age of 17, defeating fellow debutant Sandy Cajil via TKO in the second round at Cebu IT Park, Lahug, Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines.
