Chessboxing

A hybrid sport which combines the sports of chess and boxing. Inspired by cartoonist Enki Bilal, a match of chess boxing was a major plot point of his graphic novel Froid-Équateur.

From Wikipedia:
"A match between two opponents consists of up to eleven alternating rounds of boxing and chess sessions, starting with a four-minute chess round followed by two minutes of boxing and so on. Between rounds there is a 1 minute pause, during which competitors change their gear. The form of chess played is "blitz chess" in which competitors have a total of twelve minutes. Competitors may win by knockout, checkmate, a judge's decision or if their opponent's twelve minutes of chess time elapses."
