Chess-Boxing Hits it Big http://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1821639,00.html Quote The matches work like this: competitors alternate between three-minute rounds of boxing and four-minute rounds of speed chess with one-minute breaks in between to get the gloves off and hunker down at the chess table.
