Alberto "Bobby" Dapidran Pacquiao (locally [pɐkˈjaʊ]; born April 23, 1980) is a Filipino politician and former professional boxer who competed from 1997 to 2008.[2] In the super featherweight division, he held the Philippine Games and Amusements Board (GAB) title from 2002 to 2004 and the WBC Continental Americas title from 2005 until his 2006 disqualification loss to Héctor Velázquez for repeated low blows. Moving up to the lightweight division, he won the WBO Asia-Pacific title in 2008.

After retiring from boxing, he joined politics. He served as a councilor in his hometown, General Santos, from 2016 to 2019. He was then elected to the House of Representatives, serving as the party-list representative for OFW Family Club from 2019 until their loss in the 2022 election. Since 2023 he has been serving as the barangay captain of Labangal, General Santos and ex officio member of the city council by virtue of being the city's president of the Liga ng mga Barangay (LNB).

He is a younger brother of politician and former world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao.
