Wexley "Power" Gawn has revealed he will box Sakio Bika in a 12 round exhibition bout in the prelude to the Angus-Gawn fight. Power has dismissed rumours that he is to make a comeback though saying, "I just felt like dusting off the cob webs and having what is basically a public sparring session. I think I'll enjoy boxing in front of a huge crowd again but I'm not interested in making a comeback."
Wexley also suggested that some of his fellow retired greats should follow his lead. "TOS...now everyone wants to see him box again but he isn't interested in making a comeback...but he could give the fans a glimpse of himself in an exhibition bout. Exhibition bouts don't go on your record but they do give fans a taste of some of our games greatest fighters. Z Gorres, Here We Go, myself and TOS could all box exhibitions on the same bill. That would be a great event for the fans."
On his recent outburst at Lanky, Wexley smiled and said, "The venue is sold out...the fans are in for a great night of boxing. It's all good."

Touch oF SleeP makes his return in Exhibition BOUT! TOMORROW MORNING!
Breaking NEWS! First Ever Hall Of Fame Inductee, First Ever 4 Division World Champion, Only Jr. Middleweight to go to win the World Heavyweight Championship, 2007 Fighter Of The Year, Former #1 Pound For Pound Fighter Of All Time, The Undefeated Touch oF SleeP will return to the request of Hall Of Fame Middleweight Legend Wexley "Power" Gawn.

The last time lineal Heavyweight Champion The Moose was in the ring was when he became the first world heavyweight champion in our sport back on June 9, 2007 where he promptly retired after the bout. Touch oF SleeP will be fighting under the 36 Chambers Of Death and not his promotion Only Built 4 TOS in this exhibition bout.

Wexley "Power" Gawn expressed his delight on hearing the news that TOS will return in an exhibition bout on tomorrow's fight card.
"This is fantastic and I'm ecstatic about the prospect of seeing TOS box again. These exhibition bouts could become quite regular, especially on quiet weeks when there aren't a huge number of big fights scheduled. I am currently discussing a deal with Touch whereas myself, Here We Go, Z Gorres and TOS all fight exhibitions on the same bill at a huge football stadium....we will call it the return of the legends and it will sell a billion times over."

QUOTE(Touch oF SleeP - #1 All Time)
I'm doin this fight for charity. I want all my fans and all the haters to come out and support the cause. Myself and Wexley are putting on exhibition bouts to fight for the cause of cancer, the deadly disease that really took out Hall Of Famer Carlos "El Apostle" Maussa. Now with that out of the way, ima fuck The Moose up! Yeah I know this punk ass is the real worlds champion but Ima still whip his ass in front of the world. Believe that.
Harold "Harry" Angus is fuming about the timing of this announcement claiming it is taking some of the limelight away from his huge bout against Lanky "Maxy" Gawn.
Angus is said to be livid that his own promoter has arranged this on the eve of his bout with Gawn and said he felt it was an "epic disaster" and something he "couldn't forgive Wexley for" adding that he felt TOS had only got on board because it would be a "huge slap in the face" for Harry himself.
Outspoken Jowett Pipes also disapproved saying "Charity? Fuck charity and fuck Carlos Maussa..if Wexley and that fat light middleweight TOS really wanted to do something for charity they didn't have to make a fuckin' song and dance about it, actin' up like they some sorta Gods or some shit. Yo, I'll kick the both of their asses but I wouldn't do it for charity...what tha fuck has charity ever done for me?"

TOS Exhibition Bout's Promotion In Full Swing
TOS was seen throughout the city of new york and television world wide as he and his entourage walked door to door handing people flyers. The flyers said.. "Why pay $89.99 in HD for a fake heavyweight title match? Get the real championship match for charity TONIGHT with the returning Touch oF SleeP. Is Angus greater than cancer? No. Do it for the children." An effective campaign to say the least, there is already 350,000 pre orders for the exhibition charity event tonight and the fight was just signed earlier today! No one can doubt TOS's promotional skills as he continues to belittle Harold Angus as he did back when he weighed 160 pounds. Remember that? A 160 pound TOS? Yeah that was a long time ago... stay tuned as more news arrives.

TOS Campaign continues...to the billboards.
In our previous update, TOS was seen handing out flyers. Now, reports are coming in that billboards have been popping up all over the city. What does the billboard depict? Harold Angus's sad face picture after getting knocked out by Lanky Gawn a long time ago. The caption that reads on the billboard? "Have you seen my smile?" Underneath that reads, "Touch oF SleeP returns TONIGHT vs. the Real Worlds Heavyweight Champion!"

TOS Promotional Viral Campaign?
In our previous update we announced that TOS bought billboards all over the country. Now TOS has moved to the world wide web. Reports are surfacing that TOS's saying on his flyers are being posted on message boards all over the world at random. Apparently during a heated message board discussion on the democratic primary between Obama and Hilary, TOS's flyer randomly appeared as a pop up and the image was posted in the middle of the thread. Complaints are growing over this. In other news, the PPV pre-orders for the fight have now exceeded 685,000. While there are complaints over the way this exhibition is being promoted, there can be no complaints over the results. More news at it arrives.

Judah is EXTREMELY angry that his thread was spammed by TOS. TOS might have fucked up..
Big G....Judah is superbad for his size...we all know this....but do you think he would actually go after and fight TOS?
I'd pay to see THAT!...maybe at the end of the year we could have a PPV called "Mythical Mayhem"...and line up fights between greats from divisions apart....the possibilities would be endless...

We'll set up a Mythical Mayhem thread AFTER this weekend as to not take away from its splendor.....I got some ideas...I know y'all got alot of 'em...
Judah has been calling out TOS since 2007....TOS and Deep Freeze to fight at a catchweight. Both ducked him and for good reason...

TOS presents : 50,000 Moose Head March?
There are alot of great storytellers in the world, but I don't think they could even make up this next story. After handing out flyers, purchasing billboards throughout the country, a viral campaign on the internet, Touch oF SleeP has now organized a march with 50,000 people. The March will take place in the middle of manhattan with every participant holding up a moose head (no word if they are real or not) with a giant flyer attached to each moose head saying "Don't Angus and I look alike?". This is by far the biggest promotional tour in the history of the sport, and TOS did all this in one day. Does he have enough juice left for his fight later tonight? UPDATE : PPV-Pre Orders are now up 950,000! More and More people are purchasing the exhibition than the rematch between Lanky and Angus. Harold Angus's career defining night has turned into a promotional nightmare.
