Chess Boxing

Anyone fancy a match?

"Chess boxing is precisely that - a sport that combines chess and boxing. There are six rounds of chess, each lasting four minutes, and five of boxing, each lasting two minutes. The rounds take place alternately, beginning and ending with chess, with one-minute intervals. You win by a knockout in the ring or checkmate on the board. In the event of a draw in the chess and no knockout, a points winner can be declared on the basis of performance in the ring. At least I think those are the rules; I, too, was feeling a little dizzy after my trial fight."
