Had to share this one:

"Chessboxing on ESPN, Playboy and Maxim
27.06.2006 This unusual sport, in which two competitors face each other in
11 alternating rounds, six of chess, five of boxing, is rapidly gaining
popularity. You know that is the case when you see chessboxing on the
front page of a leading sports web site, and as a major story in a number
of men's magazines. Check out the ESPN video footage."
