Ever heard of the WCBO? No? It stands for “World Chess Boxing Organization”. Participants in this new sport alternately play 4 minute rounds of speed chess and 2 minute boxing rounds with around a minute or two between rounds for the fighters to collect themselves. That’s awesome, if I may be so bold. The evil geniuses responsible for coming up with such an idea ought to be rewarded richly.
Boxing. Plus chess. Wow.
