Not to get away from this topic too much, but has anyone done Chessboxing? I bet ICB was the world champ
Interestingly I played in a chess tournament in November with Andy Costello who was challenging for the world chess boxing heavyweight title. We both finished joint second in our section but didn't play each other.

He was a really nice guy, he said he got into chessboxing after a month as Michael Bispings sparring partner convinved him he couldn't make it in the UFC. Very honest guy, he said Bisping and Rampage just kicked the shat out of him in training and so he knew he couldn't compete at that level so got into chessboxing as he was a good chess player as a junior.
