Pacheco was born on March 8, 2001 in Los Angeles to Mexican parents. His mother is from Zacatecas and his father from Mexico City.

Pacheco began boxing at the age of ten and amassed over seventy-five bouts and eight National championships in his amateur career. At the time he turned professional, he was ranked as the top amateur middleweight in both the United States and Mexico.

In October 2018 Pacheco signed with Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Boxing USA. He made his professional debut on December 22, 2018, at the Auditorio Fausto Gutiérrez Moreno in Tijuana, Mexico, against Luis Carlos Gonzalez, winning by knockout (KO) early in the first round. In 2019, he fought and won seven times, including six victories by way of KO. On December 7, 2019, he featured on the undercard of Andy Ruiz Jr. vs Anthony Joshua II in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, knocking out the more experienced opponent Selemani Saidi with a right hand.

On February 29, 2020, Pacheco defeated Oscar Riojas via six-round unanimous decision (UD) on the undercard of Mikey Garcia vs. Jessie Vargas at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas.

On March 5, 2022 Pacheco stopped Genc Pllana in the second round. On June 10, 2022 he defeated Raul Ortega via fourth-round RTD.

On April 6, 2024 in Las Vegas, Pacheco was scheduled to face Shawn McCalman. He won the fight by unanimous decision and retained his WBC USA and WBO International super middleweight titles.

Pacheco was scheduled to face former title challenger Maciej Sulecki in Carson, CA on August 31, 2024. Pacheco won the fight by knockout in the sixth round with liver shot.

Pacheco beat Steven Nelson by unanimous decision in Las Vegas on January 25, 2025.

He recovered from being knocked to the canvas in the eighth round to defeat the previously unbeaten Kévin Sadjo via unanimous decision to claim the WBC Silver super-middleweight title at Stockton Arena in Stockton, California, on December 13, 2025.

At 6'4", Pacheco is well known for his length and superior sense of timing, as well as for having power in both hands.
