March London will witness another exciting fight night with brains!<br><br> This time top of the bill is a thrilling heavyweight encounter between Sergio "The Phoenix" Leveque from Italy and Dutchman, Hubert Van Melick. Leveque makes his chessboxing debut, marking the final step in his recovery from a horrendous motorbike accident in 2005 when doctors doubted he would ever walk again. Leveque has proved them wrong, regaining fitness and climbing back in the ring three times in Italy during 2009 before rising to the chessboxing challenge. Leveque plays in the Italian A league chess team and is a candidate master level player.<br> <br>Van Melick makes his third chessboxing appearance following two wins against Mexico's Hector Gomez in October 2009 and Welshman Bob Innes in December 2009. Van Melick's chessboxing career kicked off in earnest after losing his job at a top merchant bank during the financial crisis. Now instead of trading shares he trades punches and material on the chessboard, aiming for a shot at the European title currently held by Italy's Gianluca Sirci.<br><br> On the undercard we have "The Man From Pamplona" Daniel Lizarraga matched against Berliner, Sebastian Bauersfeld and Rob Gillies vs. Johnny Higginson.<br><br> This is the first of five UK chessboxing events due to take place in London this year, produced by the Great Britain Chess Boxing Organisation in conjunction with The Wolrd Chess Boxing Organisation. Future dates in 2010 will be May 8th, July 3rd, September 11th and December 4th.<br><br> Make sure you'll get your <a href="http://londonchessboxing.com/PAGES/Events-%20Tickets.html">ticket</a> in time! </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Chessboxing conquers LA! </h1><br> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> The WCBO welcomes a new member!

He has an impressive record of 50 amateur boxing bouts and 45 wins. He recently placed 5th at the European junior boxing championships in Bulgaria and will compete in the World junior championships next year. His chess Elo Rating is 1997. <br><br> Kraft, playing with the white pieces, aimed for the Spanish opening but Sazhin forced him into the Greenfield defense within the 1st chess round. <br>In the second round Leo Kraft started fiercly and overwhelmed Sazhin with a Mike Tyson style of boxing. <br>In the 3rd round Kraft castled long, which was the signal for both players to go for a direct kings attack. Sazhin was quicker and Kraft was forced to defend his king. The Chairman also got the upperhand in boxing, demonstrating his world champion qualities. <br><br>In the 5th and 7th (both chess) rounds Sazhin attempted checkmate on the board but this used too much time of his chessclock. Leo Kraft skillfully defended his king. <br>In the 6th round Kraft once again put Sazhin under pressure with fierce combinations of hooks and uppercuts. <br>In the 8th round with only one minute left on the chess timer, Sazhin knew he had to knockout his younger opponent. Backed by the excited local crowd he attacked his younger opponent with all he had, but after 3 minutes Kraft was still standing. <br>The bell rang and Nikolay Sazhin laid down his own king and surrendered.<br> Leo Kraft is the new World Champion in the light heavyweight division!<br><br> After the fight, Vladimir Makarov, head of the SCBO, pointed out that Sazhin had an knee injury just three days before the fight which definitely influenced his ability. After Iepe Rubingh, president of the WCBO confirmed this, both parties agreed on a rematch in 2010. </p><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/13/halle.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/13/schach.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/13/fight.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/13/leo.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" colspan="2"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/13/gross.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="200"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600"> <tbody> <tr> <td rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;padding:12px 12px 0px 35px;"> <br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;"> Last Tickets for Chessboxing night<br>at the Boston Dome, London! </h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Another chance to witness the worldwide phenomenon that is chessboxing.

During the boxing rounds The Rock could throw more punches but Il Dottore's chess game was the difference between the two. <br>He had been training hard to improve his chess skills which paid off in the ninth round making him the first European heavyweight champion in chessboxing history!<br> The Undercard fight was fought by Dutch Hubert van Melick against Hector Gomez. <br>It was a thrilling battle, where both chessboxers fought as true lions.

Andy 'The Rock' Costello will fight against Gianluca 'Il Dottore' Sirci in the heavyweight division. After the competitive bout in Berlin 2008 (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPVNJPUsTk8&feature=channel_page">watch here</a>) against the Italian 'Dottore' Sirci -in real life scientist- 'The Rock' in the meantime had been quite busy. He faced Wolfram von Stauffenberg, against whom he controversially lost in Cologne and won in a rematch in London. This time Costello or Sirci can gain the European championship title. Evidently this match is awaited with eagerness and accompanied with a massive publicity drive, so make sure you'll get your <a href="http://www.londonchessboxing.com/PAGES/Events-%20Tickets.html"> ticket </a> in time.<br> Plus: Hubert Van Melick faces Hector Gomez in the heavyweight divison. <br>More information <a href="http://www.londonchessboxing.com/PAGES/Events-%20Up&Coming.html"> here</a>. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;"> Godfather of chessboxing meets father of chessboxing Iepe Rubingh</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> In 1992, <a href="http://www.enkibilal.fr/"> Enki Bilal</a> - renowned creator of comics - had published a piece with the title 'Cold equator' in which for the first time chessboxing in a very elementary variation was displayed, providing the inspiration for Iepe Rubingh to create a new sport. Recently the two men met to explore their first encounter. <br>Enki Bilal visited the chessboxing headquarter and the camp where he and Iepe had a game of chess. Later he followed a training unit and a sparring match in the CBCB. <br>His initial scepticism turned into approval after he had experienced what the sport chessboxing is and how it is trained and performed. <br>M. Bilal was accompanied by a team of the french broadcasting company 'Canal+'. Within the program 'A Berlin en Berlin' Enki Bilals visit will be aired on Nov 9. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;"> Chessboxing goes south! <br>Spanish premiere in Salamanca</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> In front of 2000 spectators on one of Salamanca's most splendid spots 'Plaza Mayor', the Spanish opening couldn't have been more impressive.

Opinion was that this was the greatest chessboxing bout held in London to date which Konrad Rikardson could finally win in the 11. round. <br>In the world's first ever Amateur chessboxing bout Tim Woolgar faced Matt 'Crazy Arms' Read who could win. <br>Chessboxing talent Sebastian Bauersfeld with 4 wins and no losses fought against debutant Nick Cornish in the middleweight division. Cornish could keep up in parts but had to resign in the 3. round. <br>The heavyweight fight featured James 'The Slice' Taylor and Bob 'The Red Kite' Innes.

September in Köln David 'Double D' Depto auf den schwedischen Newcomer Konrad Rikardson. Depto eröffnete mit weiß und einem Damenbauernspiel, doch der starke Schachspieler Rikardson konnte sich schnell einen positionellen Vorteil erspielen. Der Kampf ging mit Schwung in die erste Boxrunde, die Rikardson zu Beginn noch offen gestalten konnte. Doch zwei schwere Kopftreffer zeigten Wirkung bei Rikardson, der daraufhin zu Boden ging. Depto setzte energisch nach und ließ seinem Gegner keine Luft mehr. Nach zwei weiteren Niederschlägen beendete der Ringrichter den Kampf. Somit steht David Depto als Herausforderer von Nikolay Sazhin im Kampf um die Krone im Halbschwergewicht fest! </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Umstrittene Disqualifikation Costellos in der Schwergewichtsqualifikation!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Im Qualifikationskampf um die Europameisterschaft im Schwergewicht eröffnete Costello den Kampf mit weiß und wählte das Damengambit, das jedoch von v. Stauffenberg abgelehnt wurde. Costello suchte sodann den Kampf am Königsflügel und versuchte mit Fesselung und Bauerngabel den Springer auf f6 zu erobern. Doch v. Stauffenberg hielt mit h6 - g5 dagegen und in zweischneidiger Position ging der Kampf in die 2. Runde: Boxen. Hier konnte v. Stauffenberg seine erwartete Überlegenheit im Boxen gegen den ständig klammernden Costello schwer umsetzen. Die 3. Schachrunde sah klar v. Stauffenberg im Nachteil, der auf der Uhr schon schwer zurücklag und sich auch mit Springer d7 passiv verteidigte. Mit einer Bauernattacke von Costello am Königsflügel ging der Kampf in die 4. Boxrunde, in der Costello wegen Klammerns erst einen Punktabzug erhielt um dann nach einem vermeintlichen Nackenschlag, disqualifiziert zu werden. Inwieweit die Entscheidung des Ringrichters korrekt war, wird die Videoanalyse des Materials in den nächsten Tagen ergeben. </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Int.

Deutsche Meisterschaft im Mittelgewicht trafen Jan Mielke und Sebastian Bauersfeld aufeinander. Bauersfeld eröffnete mit Weiß und der Birderöffnung den Kampf am Schachbrett, doch Mielke zeigte sich gut präpariert und kam besser aus der Eröffnung heraus. Die erste Boxrunde sah jedoch Bauersfeld leicht im Vorteil. Der Kampf gestaltete sich offen und spannend bis zur 5. Runde, in der Mielke seinen Springer auf e2 verlor. Bauersfeld agierte daraufhin deutlich selbstbewusster und vergrößerte seinen Vorteil stetig. Mielke konnte seine letzten Chancen nur noch im Boxen suchen, doch der Knockout kam nicht. In der 9. Runde streckte Mielke dann kurz vor dem Matt die Waffen. </p><br><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Konrad.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Wolfram.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Klammern.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Jan.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Winner.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" colspan="2"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Jan.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="200"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600"> <tbody> <tr> <td rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;padding:12px 12px 0px 35px;"> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Der Abend in Köln aus der Sicht der Athleten!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen wird auf dem <a href="http://www.camp.wcbo.org/">EASTPAK Built to Resist Camp - Blog</a> gewährt: dort haben die Schachboxer ihre persönlichen Erlebnisse vor, während und nach den Kämpfen gepostet. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Ausblick:</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Nikolay Sazhin hat sich im Training an der Schulter verletzt.

Depto opened with the white pieces, moving pawn d2 to d4, but Rikardson being a skilled chess player got a better position at the end of the first round. The boxing round started off boldly. Initially Rikardson was yet equal in strength but two hard punches on his head made a significant impact on Rikardson, thereupon falling to the floor. Depto continued vigorously pressuring his opponent. After two further knockdowns the referee stopped the contest. Hence David Depto will challenge Nikolay Sazhin in the upcoming fight for the world championship title in the light heavyweight division! </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Heavyweight elimination contest ends with controversial disqualification of Costello!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Costello opened with a queen's gambit, which was declined by <br>v. Stauffenberg. Costello attacked on the king's side, but <br>v. Stauffenberg defended himself well in the first round. In the following boxing round v. Stauffenberg couldn't use his expected advantage because of the clinching Costello. The following chess round ended at a disadvantage for v. Stauffenberg, his time on the chess timer was running out. Costello continued his attack with his pawns on the king's side and in the next boxing round Costello got a point deduction due to continuous clinching. After an alleged punch on the back of the head the referee decided to disqualify Costello. The WCBO is currently analyzing the footage of the fight in order to see if this decision was correct. </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">International German Championship - Clash of the cities - Berlin wins! </h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> In the int. German championship Jan Mielke met Sebastian Bauersfeld. Bauersfeld opened with the bird opening but Mielke was well prepared and the first round ended with an advantage for Mielke. Instead the boxing round ended with an advantage for Bauersfeld. The following rounds displayed an open and pulsating fight. In round 5 Mielke lost his knight on e2, which increased Bauersfeld's self-confidence. Mielke tried to take advantage of his last chance with a knockout but he couldn't make it. In round 9 Mielke capitulated while facing checkmate. </p><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Konrad.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Wolfram.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Klammern.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Winner.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" colspan="2"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Jan.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="200"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600"> <tbody> <tr> <td rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;padding:12px 12px 0px 35px;"> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">The Cologne fights from a chessboxer's perspective!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Look behind the scenes with the <a href="http://www.camp.wcbo.org/">EASTPAK Built to Resist Camp - Blog</a>: here the athletes describe their personal experiences before during and after their fights. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Next event:</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Due to a shoulder injury Nikolay Sazhin got last week during his training the upcoming event in Hamburg (scheduled for 4 October) has to be postponed.

September in Köln David 'Double D' Depto auf den schwedischen Newcomer Konrad Rikardson. Depto eröffnete mit weiß und einem Damenbauernspiel, doch der starke Schachspieler Rikardson konnte sich schnell einen positionellen Vorteil erspielen. Der Kampf ging mit Schwung in die erste Boxrunde, die Rikardson zu Beginn noch offen gestalten konnte. Doch zwei schwere Kopftreffer zeigten Wirkung bei Rikardson, der daraufhin zu Boden ging. Depto setzte energisch nach und ließ seinem Gegner keine Luft mehr. Nach zwei weiteren Niederschlägen beendete der Ringrichter den Kampf. Somit steht David Depto als Herausforderer von Nikolay Sazhin im Kampf um die Krone im Halbschwergewicht fest! </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Umstrittene Disqualifikation Costellos in der Schwergewichtsqualifikation!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Im Qualifikationskampf um die Europameisterschaft im Schwergewicht eröffnete Costello den Kampf mit weiß und wählte das Damengambit, das jedoch von v. Stauffenberg abgelehnt wurde. Costello suchte sodann den Kampf am Königsflügel und versuchte mit Fesselung und Bauerngabel den Springer auf f6 zu erobern. Doch v. Stauffenberg hielt mit h6 - g5 dagegen und in zweischneidiger Position ging der Kampf in die 2. Runde: Boxen. Hier konnte v. Stauffenberg seine erwartete Überlegenheit im Boxen gegen den ständig klammernden Costello schwer umsetzen. Die 3. Schachrunde sah klar v. Stauffenberg im Nachteil, der auf der Uhr schon schwer zurücklag und sich auch mit Springer d7 passiv verteidigte. Mit einer Bauernattacke von Costello am Königsflügel ging der Kampf in die 4. Boxrunde, in der Costello wegen Klammerns erst einen Punktabzug erhielt um dann nach einem vermeintlichen Nackenschlag, disqualifiziert zu werden. Inwieweit die Entscheidung des Ringrichters korrekt war, wird die Videoanalyse des Materials in den nächsten Tagen ergeben. </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Int.

Deutsche Meisterschaft im Mittelgewicht trafen Jan Mielke und Sebastian Bauersfeld aufeinander. Bauersfeld eröffnete mit Weiß und der Birderöffnung den Kampf am Schachbrett, doch Mielke zeigte sich gut präpariert und kam besser aus der Eröffnung heraus. Die erste Boxrunde sah jedoch Bauersfeld leicht im Vorteil. Der Kampf gestaltete sich offen und spannend bis zur 5. Runde, in der Mielke seinen Springer auf e2 verlor. Bauersfeld agierte daraufhin deutlich selbstbewusster und vergrößerte seinen Vorteil stetig. Mielke konnte seine letzten Chancen nur noch im Boxen suchen, doch der Knockout kam nicht. In der 9. Runde streckte Mielke dann kurz vor dem Matt die Waffen. </p><br><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Konrad.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Wolfram.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Klammern.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Jan.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Winner.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" colspan="2"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Jan.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="200"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600"> <tbody> <tr> <td rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;padding:12px 12px 0px 35px;"> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Der Abend in Köln aus der Sicht der Athleten!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen wird auf dem <a href="http://www.camp.wcbo.org/">EASTPAK Built to Resist Camp - Blog</a> gewährt: dort haben die Schachboxer ihre persönlichen Erlebnisse vor, während und nach den Kämpfen gepostet. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Ausblick:</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Nikolay Sazhin hat sich im Training an der Schulter verletzt.

Depto opened with the white pieces, moving pawn d2 to d4, but Rikardson being a skilled chess player got a better position at the end of the first round. The boxing round started off boldly. Initially Rikardson was yet equal in strength but two hard punches on his head made a significant impact on Rikardson, thereupon falling to the floor. Depto continued vigorously pressuring his opponent. After two further knockdowns the referee stopped the contest. Hence David Depto will challenge Nikolay Sazhin in the upcoming fight for the world championship title in the light heavyweight division! </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Heavyweight elimination contest ends with controversial disqualification of Costello!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Costello opened with a queen's gambit, which was declined by <br>v. Stauffenberg. Costello attacked on the king's side, but <br>v. Stauffenberg defended himself well in the first round. In the following boxing round v. Stauffenberg couldn't use his expected advantage because of the clinching Costello. The following chess round ended at a disadvantage for v. Stauffenberg, his time on the chess timer was running out. Costello continued his attack with his pawns on the king's side and in the next boxing round Costello got a point deduction due to continuous clinching. After an alleged punch on the back of the head the referee decided to disqualify Costello. The WCBO is currently analyzing the footage of the fight in order to see if this decision was correct. </p><br><br> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">International German Championship - Clash of the cities - Berlin wins! </h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> In the int. German championship Jan Mielke met Sebastian Bauersfeld. Bauersfeld opened with the bird opening but Mielke was well prepared and the first round ended with an advantage for Mielke. Instead the boxing round ended with an advantage for Bauersfeld. The following rounds displayed an open and pulsating fight. In round 5 Mielke lost his knight on e2, which increased Bauersfeld's self-confidence. Mielke tried to take advantage of his last chance with a knockout but he couldn't make it. In round 9 Mielke capitulated while facing checkmate. </p><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Konrad.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Wolfram.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Klammern.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" align="right"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Winner.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="200" valign="top" colspan="2"><img src="http://files.wcbo.org/newsletters/07/Sebastian_Jan.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="200"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600"> <tbody> <tr> <td rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;padding:12px 12px 0px 35px;"> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">The Cologne fights from a chessboxer's perspective!</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Look behind the scenes with the <a href="http://www.camp.wcbo.org/">EASTPAK Built to Resist Camp - Blog</a>: here the athletes describe their personal experiences before during and after their fights. </p> <h1 style="font-family:Georgia,serif;color:#c90020;font-size:18px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;padding:0;margin:0;">Next event:</h1> <p style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#000000;font-size:12px;line-height:13px;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;text-align:left;"> Due to a shoulder injury Nikolay Sazhin got last week during his training the upcoming event in Hamburg (scheduled for 4 October) has to be postponed.
