[blitz14u]

[chicken9876]

u should get a punch for each piece captured..till knock out

[sohunt18]

is anyone else totally unsurprised that it was invented by that guy

[NomosLove]

WU TANG FOREVER

[RyanDo2000]

they should have the winner of chess punch the loser in the face and balls for half an hour there you go chess boxing!!! or you can have this..."BOOOOOOOOOOO"

[wiz189]

i dont get it.

[durracel]

is the guy @ 1:03 a fucking dumb shit or what "there is no other sport that combines mental and physical aspects" all sports that are physical combine mental focus boxing by itself has a big mental factor that can see you win or lose the fight to your own mental defeat. chess boxing its fuckin shit mate i agree with resley3 fuck take your opponents piece and give him one hahaha different combos for different pieces who evers not knocked out at the end wins and or if someone win by checkmate

[durracel]

they go at it any way and if you win by checkmate and the other guy knocks you out he wins fuck yeah lets see that shit

[Coolcats3553]

YEAH!! Move that King!!! ..

[ashrocks87]

the only reason I clicked on the vid is because i thought he was Mr. Bean roflmfao

[FragBashers]

i thoughtit would be were theres 2 teams of boxers with a chess master moving them over a checkered floor and instead of immediate knockouts they box to see who wins

[superdudeaway]

@FragBashers that seems a lot more entertaining. the britts have the most ridiculous games.

[xtsubasakamixx]

There's already a multitude of sports which challenge the mind and body.

The closest thing to having to use tactics similar to those of chess, whilst fighting, is fencing.

[danm669]

Raw ima give it to ya wit no trivia raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia my hip hop will rock and shock the nation i need an emancapation proclomation. WU TANG WU TANG WU TAAAAAANG

[withaccord]

@danm669 thats DA MYSTERY OF CHESSBOXIN

[SandmanAudioVisual]

1.07 ... "there's no sport that combines mental AND physical aspects" ... has obviously never played sport before.

[56Database]

"There's no sport that combines both mental and physical capabilities"

He's obviously never played a sport.

[Paiste402]

Mike Tyson would lose easily, he would choke on the plastic pieces as he tries to bite the ears off the horses.

[Freshboot]

I AM DAVE YOGNAUGHT AND I HAVE THE BALLS!

[konochi520]

Badminton is a sport of strategy with combines Mental and Physical abilitys

[vladimirlegorocks]

21st century

[sammeme]

mike tyson will win the championship



[diagonaluk]

@sammeme only if he gets to the boxing round, I'd imagine a grandmaster could beat me him in the first round of chess

[bnewton81]

@diagonaluk What? To beat Mike Tyson? Srsly?  A 3yr old would beat him in this boxing match.

[TrueGreatness73]

@DonkeyBitch I dont understand at all. You know what you should watch Arena Football. I am far from what your talking about. What your saying makes no sense to you, no offense. Thats like saying you should have a army of a few. It makes no sense at all to me that your speaking about a team sport being cut to a certain few. I am sorry it makes no sense to me. That is like saying armies should only have a few soldiers in war because its pointless to have more. Sorry but your point is confusing

[COLEYAH]

lets try chess sex.

[BCGCAW392]

fuck i watched this for Mr Bean!

[Ididnthaveaname]

Viswanathan Anand VS. Klitschko Who would win?

[banda5k1]

@Ididnthaveaname Depends which one they play first... :D

[MurdocLC]

Wtf, this is kinda cool but I thought it would be a bit more innovative.

[ti3nt]

Combines mental and physical capabilities? It just alternates between the two..

[TheShock88]

@ 1:03 who is that fucking idiot saying no sport has mental challenges in them? look at baseball for example 90% of it is a mental battle with yourself and your opponent

[blackrainuponus]

Baseball is not a mental battle, you hit the ball and you run. You pick up the ball and then you throw.

It's the worst sport ever, almost every sport is fun to play, but baseball is not even fun to play let alone watch. You could've picked any other sport and had made a better example.

English is clearly the dude's second language, but even without that justification it's true that the mental aspects of sports are way less than the physical. The coach handles strategics, not the players.

[TheShock88]

@blackrainuponus lol you obviously have never played baseball at least not in a serious way, and therefore have no idea what you are talking about. dont judge a book by its cover, its not just throwing and hitting, ask any true baseball player or analyst and they will tell you its a mental game. And your opinion that baseball is a bad sport and boring to watch/play is your own opinion not everyone feels that way.

[essteben]

I only clicked because i thought that was mr. bean haha

[SEThatered]

Use your brain than SMACK EM OUT!!!

[Tusserte]

da mystery of chessboxin... can it all be so simple?

[RomanticLinguaphilia]

Ha ha haha ha ha

[TrueGreatness73]

@DonkeyPunchYoBitch I have played football for 10 plus years and I coach on the side. Football is a game of strategy. Just like a chess match. Trust me on that one. The game could be played with 4 people each? The other five are only after the other four?? That makes no sense at all.. NBA could be played with 3 or 4 technically?? The game wasnt designed like that. Ever heard of a team game? By the way UFC takes great skills and mentality. Some fights are gay but thats only the gay fighters! smh

[macomighty]

No sport that combines mental and physical aspects? I see what he's trying to say, but still, most sports do have both.

[izman20]

Dumb

[TrueGreatness73]

this guy said there is no sport that combines mental and physical aspects.. lmao.. Football, UFC, NBA has mental and physical aspects if you understand the game. He doesn't know what he is talking about and from the looks of this, this sport is mental in a retarded sense and physical in a handicap sense.

[linky202]

@TrueGreatness73 alright DonkeyPunchYoBitch is clearly a terrorist so don't listen to him. i get where you're going with the whole using mentality in sports and I agree, usually a sport does require mentality. if you're not in a focused mental state then obviously it'll result in a panic and as we've clearly seen professionals don't do that often. I'm guessing what the guy meant was no sport uses an extreme amount of mentality and physical ability in one sport.

[indierollz]

Dude I feel like lots of people come up with crazy ideas like this. It's awesome one of those ideas actually became popular.

[Rodsur]

Thumbs up if you knew about chess boxing because you watched eve fanfest :D

[MrNDSteinbach]

I am Dave! Yognaught!

[Jigiligy]

So I bet the winner in chess got a hell of punches in the boxing ring

[N1CKZzZzZzZzz]

every sport combines mental and physical aspects!! -.-

[bonzibonzibonzi1987]

lol ace.

[adamis21]

If it came out in 2003 why are we just hearing about it now. Where have you been diagonaluk!!!

[SATIJAF]

@adamis21 In India obviously haha

[acetoniac]

When I read the title I imagined a giant chess field where each chess figure is represented by a boxer, and two chess players telling the boxers where to go, and when they meet an opponent they fight.

[XDiScONeCtX]

Seriously, this is the dumbest sport ever.

[bobrobrules]

a got a boxing ad before the video

[NederHopp]

This somehow reminds me of the Wu-Tang Clan..

[twobit211]

@NederHopp it's their official sport. i'm sure it was really invented by GZA.

[NederHopp]

@twobit211 hahahaha, I guess too.

[thedeathwar]

i bet ur mind get screwed first before even getting punched...

[Penguin1eggs]

I imagined a harry potter type deal where people were the pieces and they had to fight to the death when they came into contact.

[rateb811]

stupid

[TheRiCkJaMeS182]

thought it was Mr. Been

[diagonaluk]

@TheRiCkJaMeS182 that is a great call

[WFG555]

@TheRiCkJaMeS182 *bean

[mzrealm]

@TheRiCkJaMeS182 Who the fuck is Mr. Been?

[hayoungjung77]

@TheRiCkJaMeS182 wait........ its not him?!

[nisbahmumtaz909]

This is almost as intense as thumb-war arm wrestling.

But I still think scrabblecheckers is more fun.

[BigUpToNJ]

there referee's eye contact is impeccable

[FutrarGameplay]

Meanwhile at beatboxing:

"Hmm, i'll make a move"

*makes move*

"Check me"

"OH F- "*gets beated the crap out

[JaxxDaemon]

Finally something normal. No eating lizards and bugs, No body mutilating or building stupid lego

[SigroTh]

It makes the boxers look like pussies

[lexen]

weird



[Shearo]

"There's no sport that combines mental and physical aspects". Are you fucking retarded? Wow. Almost EVERY sport combines mental and physical abilities.

[UnknownIncognito]

that referee is way too excited about this...

[TKVRPRJCT]

...Is this for real...

[ayman1006]

But will it blend?

[1catpoop1]

and um....there are sports that combine mental and phsical powers.....golfs, darts, or....practically any sport there is...

[1catpoop1]

imagine a man sized chess board with 1 people on each side and the comander (chess player) tell the people where to go and when a chess piece (human) takes another chess piece out he has to nock him out............yeeaaah that would be an awsome sport to play :D

[highves]

@1catpoop1 that's excately what i was thinking and the queen should be like a heavyweight and the pawns featherweights that would be so enjoyable to watch

[AniAddictDaisuken]

omfg, this is hilarious... creator of the game.. holy hell, where am I? xD

[mefilmmaking]

it's a shame. i've lived for 22yrs. and have never learned how to play chess.

[Cube3Productions]

combine checkers and tennis, holy shit i just made a new sport!!

[PencilStudios]

Lol? football? thats mental and physical so dont say that this is the only one

[Samulise]

@PencilStudios I doubt football requires as much thought as chess though...

[Shockszzbyyous]

@Samulise we will never know

[PencilStudios]

@Samulise You ever played it? i played linebacker and i wasnt one of those big breads.. i was the smallest on my team and yet i was still one of the best linebackers. it took alot of mental skill to do that

[Samulise]

@PencilStudios Wait wait wait wait.

We're not talking about football/soccer?

[ummmwhatnow]

Luls this is retarded

[teanlong]

genius

[EXG1RL]

They kill boxing with this dumbshit for kids.

[nght5tlkr]

Fighting already takes concentration and reading of the opponent's moves...

[nisbahmumtaz909]

This is almost as intense as thumb-war arm wrestling.

But I still think scrabblecheckers is more fun.

[MarkQP]

lol

[PatrikVorg]

Rather interesting actually :O

[jakeheninger]

number 2

[hobojoe1159]

they are so mad

[resley3]

when i think of chess boxing i think, i make a moove and i punch my oppenent in the face.

[TheBadShaman]

@resley3 I thought the same exact thing.

[michaelvd0wnzu]

yes!

[VVilcord]

Problem?
