Poor ticket sales knock out Pacquiao's concert

HONOLULU -- A promoter says poor ticket sales have forced the cancellation of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao's upcoming concert Sunday in Waikiki.

Ryan Chang of Island Fire Productions said Tuesday he stood to lose about US$50,000 on the concert, even with late sales and walk-ups. Only 603 tickets had been sold for the show at the Waikiki Shell just days after more than 45,000 people the largest crowd to see a fight in the U.S. in 17 years watched Pacquiao retain his welterweight title against Joshua Clottey in Texas.
