Chess Boxing

It’s called chess boxing and it’s like it sounds. We start in a ring. There are screaming fans. The first round is 4 minutes of chess, followed by 3 minutes of boxing, then chess, then boxing, for 11 rounds. You win by knocking out your opponent or checkmating him, either way. When there’s a draw, judges decide. It’s a brain/brawn sport like nothing I’ve ever seen, blood, knights, queens, and speed combined. Robert Krulwich, NPR Full Story.

Does anyone else think this sounds like fun?
