Why? Episode 66- Chess Boxing Champion Matt Thomas

Heidi Hedquist/ Luke Poling Season 1 Episode 66

Matt Thomas is a world champion chess boxer. As the first American to try the sport, Matt broke new ground in a sport that combines the brains needed for chess and the brawn needed to hit someone in the face repeatedly.

Matt talks with us about his strategy  that he brought to the world championship and what gave him a leg up on his competition and about his charity that raises money through boxing.
