And just when you thought ESPN couldn't come up with anything else to televise...

I mean, after creating professional versions of just about every imaginable "sport," you'd think nothing else could be done.

But... a hybrid chess-and-boxing tournament? I mean, I'm all for big brawny guys having brains as well, but....

This could shatter every sterotype mankind has ever created.

You know, it actually sounds interesting. If you're sharp enough with your mind, you don't need to be as strong or tough. Just ward off the blows enough to beat the guy.
