I’ve Got a Mean Left Rook (Chess Boxing)

From Time Magazine. Chess-Boxing. No kidding. The challenge is supposed to be lowering your adrenaline level after the hitting and being hit in the face part, a little limbic brain action there, to shifting the frontal lobes into gear play chess. Now that is likely challenging some novel neurological combos. The only way to up the ante on this one might be something like knife fight - chess matches. With today’s entertainment, I wouldn’t bet against it.

Digg!
