MAURICE "TERMITE" WATKINS SIGNS WITH WILLIAM MORRIS

Beverly Hills, CA (September 29, 2004)__Olympic boxing coach Maurice "Termite" Watkins has signed with the William Morris Agency for representation in all areas.

Watkins, a former professional boxer and U.S. Golden Gloves champion, recently worked with our armed forces in Iraq as a pest control technician, where he ultimately took on the coalition's challenge to qualify an Iraqi fighter for the Olympics. Watkins succeeded by not only taking Iraqi boxer Najah Ali to the Olympics but also coaching him in his first Olympic win.

Earlier this year, the New York Police Department awarded Termite an SBA Certificate of Honor for his "tremendous efforts towards world peace;" and Mayor Bill White officially proclaimed July 22, 2004 "Termite Watkins Day" in Houston, Texas. On October 24, 2004 Termite is set to receive the prestigious "Arete Award" - which pays tribute to those who use athletics to bring out the best in mankind - on CBS.

Watkins is managed by Cliff Lee Roberts at Roberts Law Office in Houston.
