With shoes off, the competitors face each other in ?toedium? interlocking their toes attempting to force the opponent?s foot into the ground, pretty much like arm wrestling! ?* imagining how funny it looks *

Chess Boxing

This is one is exactly as it sounds ? where competitors have 11 rounds and they alternate between playing traditional boxing and a game of chess, they also have to be highly skilled in both boxing and chess in order to compete at the highest level. It is a composition of both knockout and check-mating your opponent! Interesting, right?

Uni (que) cycle Hockey
