Stone the crows, gor blimey govner, never in a million years and bollocks, I said to my friend.
I didn’t believe it but there is an actual sport, chess boxing – where the paticipants get to beat the crap out of there opponent, both mentally and physically. You have to be an experianced boxer and a class A statndard of chess player to participate; events are held regulary at the london Scala, which has just hosted the heaverweight fight fort the ‘Bobby Fischer’ Title.
I kid you not.
Thanks to Ashen for educating me to alternate sports.
