I bet it takes too long to either:

1. Take the gloves off and put them back on in between rounds.

or

2. Pick up all the chess pieces that get knocked over.

watching the video of last years championship was painful, this should do as good as that basketball hybrid with trampolines that flopped a couple of years ago on Espn 8.
