@@keepermovin5906 I watch chess matches and boxing matches, and have an interest in both. This is really, really, lame as a spectator sport when you're used to watching elite athletes. By adding separate win conditions and physical fighting, you make the chess a lot more boring to watch. And the lazy narration that basically says "Okay, they're playing the flattest, most stable defences because they don't want to get checkmated before they fight" makes the chess even harder to follow. It's just amateur boxing with chess thrown in between rounds. I doubt there's very many chess boxers that would fare well in either a professional boxing match or a chess match against an IM or GM.

@I Miss The Old Days Damn the strategy that must go into this at high levels has gotta be crazy since trying too hard during the boxing rounds will leave you gassed out, which would make it much harder to think when you´re doing the chess part, but hurting your opponent will make him have a much harder time thinking about the chess match as well, or you can try to play it safe, stay on the defensive and tire the other guy out during the boxing to make his chess weaker if you´re worried he´s gonna out-think you, or you can do it when you feel you´ve got a good thing going on in the chess match and you wanna preserve your cognitive abilities as best you can.

Get the fuck out of here dude, there´s a lot of strategy in boxing and it requires mental toughness but you still have to actually be physically able to hit the other guy, and do it hard enough that it hurts. Boxing is only 90% mental when both contestants are evenly skilled and in good shape. That´s when it becomes a game of elaborate setups and pushing through adversity.

@@29slowjoe Well of course it does. Your head has to be in the game just like every other sport, it´s just harder to do that than most other sports because messing up has dire consequences, you get hurt. That has nothing to do with the claim that boxing is 90% mental though. That would mean that you would have a reasonable chance of winning against someone massively fitter and more skilled than you just because you have a better mentality, and that´s just not true. No guy who is green at boxing will land a solid punch on a Holyfield or a Pacquiao or a Golovkin, no matter how strong and clever they are mentally. Physical part of the game is your ability to do what you need to do, the mental side is your ability to maintain that ability under pressure and push through adversity. If your skills and fitness are not up to par having a strong mind doesn´t do anything, it just makes you stay in there longer getting beat up. Example: Floyd vs Gatti

My son is involved quite heavily in chess boxing and has not lost one of his seven matches. His last fight ended in a brilliant knock out. Yes the sport is very serious and entertaining. Better you understand at least the rudiments of chess to gain a full appreciation. To answer, at least partially, the question at what level of chess player are the contenders; you could equally ask at what level of boxer are the contenders? But Carl has a FIDE rating ELO of around 2300 (ELO is how chess is measured nationally and internationally) He is a rated FIDE Master and is now working towards IM (International Master) . The boxing has to be learned also, although this can be more painful. Boxing is a class skill. Though you get a shorter apprenticeship than learning chess. Basically it is the use of both brain and brawn and the efficiency of the divergent levels of concentration necessary to each sport. In other words : To get anywhere you need to be good at both. The organisers are unlikely to match contenders who are seriously outclassed before the game begins. Paying Customers don't like that !

@davidrobins10218 жыл бұрын
Well, yes, this is a good point; I think there are arguments both ways, with it really coming down to how you define a sport. If you say a sport is something like "a competitive activity involving skill and a significant degree of physical exertion" (which is reasonable, I would say), then chess clearly isn't a sport as it falls down on the physical exertion part. On the other hand, other relatively sedentary things like darts and snooker are definitely classed as sports, calling into question the validity of the above definition, and hence of the status of chess. Plenty of room for debate here I think :)
@Phrolox8 жыл бұрын
I think you need to define physical exertion because it's been shown the physical toll on your body is just as high as any sport where u physically move. Heart rates of the professionals have been recorded as high as 170 beats per minute during key moments in chess games. Part of the reason Chess is recognised by the Olympic committee as a sport.

***** i know losing your queen is bad! I don't play much chess, but i know the rules and basic tactics. My point was, tho the chess game is effectively over, just run away with your king for as long as possible and go for a KO in the boxing. Yeah, he looked tired, but plenty of tired boxers who were losing the fight have come back to win...

Kasparov would definitely beat Tyson in 12 minutes of chess, no question there. But imagine a player who's fairly good but not world class at chess, maybe an FM or IM, playing Tyson in chess with the added pressure that if they don't close the game out within 12 minutes they're going to get knocked the fuck out in one massive hook by a hulking 250 pound boxing world champion. I feel like that would be something to watch, because at that point it's just a game of nerves.
