Manny Pacquiao's Hawaii concert canceled because of poor ticket sales

who keeps telling pac that he has a chance in music? :rofl: :nonono:.

FLOYD thinks he can rap and he sound like retard! Floyd's rap career > Manny's singing career. Both guys are horrible and should stick to boxing.

Well.. he sucks at singing.. so..

:rofl: Trust me. He doesn't know it. I think he knows it, he has ears lol. However he seems to enjoy it, like his movie and political career, which sucked.

600+ tix for him to sing! TO me that is success manny sucks and he knows it but he still sold 600 tix. Good for you manny Manny needs to go to county fairs and way smaller venues he would only sell out in the fily

Oscar won a Latin Grammy lol:ugh: I went and checked, he was nominated, he did not win. But not bad for a debut album from somebody that he career wasn't singing

Oscar won a Latin Grammy lol:ugh: Wow if he did I don't remember if he won one, I knew he was nominated but as far as I know he didn't get much radio play. I guess being very popular helps alot

Didn't DeLaHoya tried this also? I guess when you get that big you think you can do it all cause the support and you can finance yourself even if you are unsucessful Oscar won a Latin Grammy lol:ugh:

LOL they actually sell tickets for his concerts? Manny Pacquiao is the new William Hung

wait up.manny got paid close to 20 mill for that fight?

Hopefully he losses that stupid election, he's in his prime right now. No need for bullshit outside the ring.

What? Not many people want to hear him sing "Nothing's gonna change my love for you"? :439:

Didn't DeLaHoya tried this also? I guess when you get that big you think you can do it all cause the support and you can finance yourself even if you are unsucessful

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/44/142652279_4d300fda5a.jpg Citing poor ticket sales, promoters have canceled world champion boxer Manny Pacquiao's concert that was to be held Sunday at the Waikiki Shell. Tickets refunds will be issued on Thursday and available at the customer's "point of purchase, Ryan Chang of Island Fire Productions said. You can also contact Island Fire at 780-1975 or e-mail islandfireproductions@yahoo.com. Chang said as of noon today only 603 tickets had been sold for "Manny Pacquiao Live In Hawaii Concert Celebration." "The Shell holds about 8,500 people and we only needed to sell about 2,500 tickets to break even and we would have been happy," Chang said. "But I can't risk losing that much of our investors' money on walkups and late sales this week. A good walkup is about 500 people. As it stands I'll be taking about a $50,000 loss." Pacquiao, whose pay-per-view take and fight purse from last Saturday's unanimous decision over Joshua Clottey is expected to be between $17 million and $20 million, was going to earn $100,000 for performing Sunday. He was going to sing for an hour with his MP Band and he was going to give away an autographed replica of the IBO light welterweight championship belt he earned with his win over Ricky Hatton last May. More than 20 other musicians, deejays, jugglers, dancers and magicians were also scheduled to take part in the concert. Pacquiao's draw as a boxer is phenomenal. Cowboys Stadium was set up for 45,000 people to watch last Saturday's fight, but more than 50,000 tickets were sold, meaning more than 5,000 fans had "party seats" where they could be in the stadium and watch it on the massive big screen but had limited or no view of the ring itself. In the ring, he didn't disappoint those who feel he is the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world. He threw more than three times as many punches as Clottey and judges had him winning every round but one. As a singer, Pacquiao isn't nearly as accomplished. He had two albums go platinum in the Philippines, but YouTube videos of his singing performances have shown him struggling to hit notes and keep his tone. Chang said he hadn't been able to reach Pacquiao's camp to discuss the cancellation, but expected to hear from them sometime today. He also said he's hoping to negotiate to bring Pacquiao back sometime in the future. "I don't know what to say about what happened," Chang said. "We thought Hawai'i would appreciate bringing him in and 25 bucks is pretty cheap and reasonable. We needed to either pull out now or make about $175,000 to break even. I couldn't risk dropping that much for my investors." Tickets for the concert ranged from $25 to $150, with the highest-priced seats including a meet-and-greet with Pacquiao. link good! i hope he gets a freakin clue! stop singing manny! and i also hope he loses this coming election again... people need to stop encouraging him. stop singing, stop trying to get into politics, stop acting, stick to boxing!

Pacquiao's also running for an election he's not expected to win.Good though to see he's industrious

Mayweather is soulja boy compared to Roy Jones in rapping. :nonono: this mtv generation
