MUNICH, Germany (March 26, 2007) - Five-time world champion and reigning WBA cruiserweight title-holder Virgil "Quicksilver" Hill has collaborated with Grammy Award-winning record producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and singer Joy Enriquez to produce "Conqueror," a new single that will be released at "The Rematch," headlined by the 12-round main event between Hill and Henry "The Gentleman" Maske, on March 31 in Munich, Germany.

"The Rematch," promoted by WHS International at Olympia Hall, will be broadcast live in the United States on cable and satellite pay-per-view starting at 4 PM/ET, 1 PM/PT. The event is being distributed for pay-per-view by Integrated Sports and will be available via iN Demand, DirecTV and TVN for a suggested retail price of only $24.95.

Hill (50-5, 23 KOs), a certain future Hall of Fame boxer, recently voiced a speaking part on the single at Darkchild Studios in Pleasantville, New Jersey. Enriquez, who is Jenkins' wife, is the lead singer on the single and she will be in person to sing the United States National Anthem at "The Rematch" in Munich, where Hill will use "Conqueror" as his ring walk music for his fight against Maske.

Maske (30-1, 11 KOs) has come out of more than a decade in retirement to fight Hill in their Mar. 31 rematch. Virgil knocked previously unbeaten IBF light heavyweight king Maske into retirement with a 12-round split decision (116-113, 115-113, 112-116) in their 1996 unification bout at Olympia Hall.
