Super proud of Chris, as a boxing fan he didnt do bad at all you can tell he really worked at it. He's in good shape as well, i hope he does this again
@@clement9782 The guy has biked seemingly the entirety of japan, completed a spartan race, and is now in the boxing ring. I’d say that’s good shape for someone who isn’t a professional athlete.
@@solomoncrawford27atg What you've done doesn't equate to what you are, he's in relatively bad shape and his body doesn't look healthy for a 32 years old individual. He even said it himself a few months ago, he isn't in good shape. You can stop with the copium 💜💕
@@clement9782 Look how defined Chris' biceps are, that's definitely the result of weight training. Chris is old and has a certain body type that rather makes it way more difficult to lose visceral fat but despite that, he doesn't look very out of shape and I'd say he is in "good" shape, not great, good.
@@つな-u1s CICO is real and has been proven for decades, there's known ways to reduce viceral fat or body fat in general because viceral fat isn't his only issue, he doesn't lead a healthy lifestyle and that's alright tbh he isn't obese or anything ! There's worst people we all agree, he just isn't in good shape, he's in below average shape (so bad shape in a nutshell)
Good guy Chris Broad. After his medical report said his heart needs more excercise, he gave us nailbiting performance to help us excercise our heart as well.
From Abroad in Japan to Mr Affable to Mr Calfable to Barry Chopsticks to Mogul Chess Boxing Champion, Chris has come such a long way this year. And just like your drip Never let the growth stop champ!!
chris was completely outmatched in boxing, he was pretty much just fighting to survive in every round. Really impressive that he was not only able to survive, but he never looked like he was getting gassed
Yes the second the first boximg round started i thought chris was fucked, he was weaker, shorter with less reach , in worse shape and the other guy had boxing experience very well for him to survive those rounds
Man, that was absolutely insane! Chris channeling his infinite affability into making Overtflow stare longingly into his eyes instead of playing chess was a great move!
This was genuinely so hype to watch live. I for sure thought Chris was screwed the whole time and I’ve never seen a more intense minute of chess in my life
Here's how tense I was watching this. I accidentally saw a clip of chris winning at the end and went back to find the whole fight. After the first round I forgot that I had already seen Chris win on the clip and was rooting hoping he'd pull through.
That last round of chess was absolutely insane. The black pawn one square away from promotion apparently not knowing that that's even a rule!!! Chris doing an incredible job running down the opponent's time by shimmying his king away from danger again and again. Absolutely wild
Agree, it showed all the different ways that you can win a match and how you can’t rely on just getting up in one way and riding it out. Seemed like a win by checkmate, then the blunder, maybe a win in boxing, maybe a win by chess timeout, maybe a win by checkmate. It was all over the place and really exciting. Also showed how the boxing rounds and time pressure of chess all come together to create the ultimate stressful chess match
I really liked the sportsmanship in both of them but even more on overtflow he was better on the ringue and started winning on the chess, lost by time and took it super nice. I love the faces of Chris on the camara and his spirit. Good job for both
Really happy for Chris. I honestly wasn't expecting him to win but I'm still proud of him for setting a goal to better himself and improve his health. The fact that he actually won is just the icing on the cake.
It's been awesome to watch Chris's progress this year. I've been rooting for him as soon as I saw he'd signed up. Glad to see him to stick it through to a victory.
Definitely one of the biggest surprises in the show. I don't think most of us thought this would go the distance, congrats to both fighters and players.
I was rooting for Chris, one of the best channels on RUclips easily. It was great seeing American Pete in his corner. I do have to give props to Overtflow, sounded like a really cool guy and was honorable even taking the L. Big props to both guys. Happy my guy won but both deserve the best.
class acts on both sides. Loved the mutual respect, the excitement from both competitors, their coaches both seemed very proud of their efforts. Knowing the backstory, was cheering for Chris the whole time, but Overtflow really charmed the audience with his attitude. great match
Ngl, Chris pulled off a real miracle not to get knocked out. Say what you will, but that match-up was brutal, especially without a helmet. Dude was clearly outmatched in reach, experience and fitness, but still fought admirably. Mad props to him.
I said this during the livestream, but I really think this is a testament to how much the pressure and stress from boxing can affect one's chess performance. Fantastic show!
My man Overtfow really was dominating in both chess and boxing, can't believe Chris actually pulled it through. Much respect to both the players for delivering the most entertaining match of the evening.
RUclips always uploads the live Streams right After the Stream. Like 1 sec later the whole Stream is there As a Video. Maybe the Content creators can do to mid stream too 🤔 or the Editors Are just Gods
If you look at the other uploaded VOD though, the audio at some parts is really scuffed with commentator audio from other parts of the fight playing intermittently. You can tell it was rushed but it's better than nothing
That is how chess takes over from football. Here I am standing on the edge of my lounge chair doing ducks, doing weaves and making diagonal moves with my bishop all of the while. I could'a been a contender.
Really cool and fun to watch. Big shout out to Overtflow! He jumped in, had so much less preparation time, made this match even possible and delivered a great show, while being great sports. He really questioned the Mr. Affable Titel right there. Chris has to be careful or he looses his title.
the difference in form and ring experience was enomous, overflow looked so much more relaxed and confident. and chris didn´t even seem to want to hit anything but his gloves. but also chris didn´t seemed to be intimidated much by him and he has some real explosive energy that just needs to be directed. so a lot of untapped potential, would love to see how this looks after another 6 or 12 months of training.
I don’t know what Chris’s strategy was but I think Chris jabbed the gloves for a reason. I think he was trying to subdue Overflow’s lead hand the hand Overflow consistently landed.
This is a very clever idea ludwig well done !! Much love to everyone involved !! Pray yall keep building these events up out there keep dat business boomin

Can't believe Chris lost the queen out of respect for the uk truly an affable man
fck, im dying of laugh reading this.
LMAO
🤣🤣🤣
LMAOOOOO
BRUH 😭🤣
No No No, The Queen Sacrifised It For Chris so He can Win the Chessboxing Event
It's hilarious how chat was cheering for Chris so much but instantly said "Rip Chris" once they saw Overflow. I'm happy that he got out of it okay
My reaction when I saw Overtflow was "Oh no, he's going to turn Chris into apple sauce"
He probably took it easy on chris
@@Njsjdjdjdj he obviously did, but it was enjoyable nonethless.
@@Njsjdjdjdj exactly, it was extremely kind of him--looks like really good dude!
@@zelest That's reasonable as Chris is 50% cider.
Chris was an underdog and I wanted him to win so bad. This might’ve been my favorite match of the night
bro its only half way over 💀
@@jac1011 favorite match of the night so far*
I agree with this
This and Andrea botez
@@SPasta69420 Andrea had me to my seat. The shade she threw was so true. A game of hide and seek
The poor forgotten pawn waiting to be promoted :C
So sad :-(
How is this not the top comment??
Getting your brain rattled clearly not a chess performance enhancer lol
@@teegeesgetting your brain rattled by what?! Neither guy landed a single punch in the whole fight.
@@Grovesie35 Watch again
Chris doesn't understand how close he got to death being next to Jerma the meat grinder.
Seeing Chris and Jerma in a production together is a fucking fever dream. Two completely different worlds collide
@@Mikau888 It doesn't feel real, two of my favourite creators in the same place
CHRIS CLUTCHED IT, MR AFFABLE HIMSELF
Ye
nah the dude let him have it, no way he didn't see that pawn
either way, respect for facing someone that much fitter and hanging on until the end
@@marceloantunes998 he missed multiple checks, he probably forgot about the pawn lol
Can we talk about how good the chess boxing announcer is though? The guy is absolutely killing it and it makes it hella fun to watch
Which one?
@@Ghastlymane the chess boxing champion i think
@@laidbackrey ahh, thank you. I don't think KB knows that there are 3 announcers lol.
@@Ghastlymane I’m very aware my man, I watch GothamChess and am obviously subscribed to Ludwig. Don’t be condescending
@@laidbackrey indeed
I have never in my life been so invested in a boxing match, the chess really spiced it up
Chris along with the boys definitely had the best entrance! Using his own music, sponsoring his own shorts. This man is all W's.
Super proud of Chris, as a boxing fan he didnt do bad at all you can tell he really worked at it. He's in good shape as well, i hope he does this again

Overtflow had a whole speech prepared for when he lost to Mr. Affable
i actually made it up on the spot
Bro an immediate reply from the man him self, gg man it was an exiting match
@@overtflow Jesus christ I thought you would make absolute pudding out of Chris, thanks for not killing him
@@overtflow nice speech and nice match!
Yooooo pog you were noticed

Super pumped that Chris won and Overtflow is such a nice, humble guy! Both of them are amazing!!
Chris needed this win after losing the abs bet with Connor
Omg I completely forgot about that LOL
LETS FUCKING GO CHRIS, so proud you won and all the weight you loss
This fight was insane, extremely intense down to the final minute, props to both of the competitors!
I cant say enough how proud I am of Lud! It doesnt matter how long you followed Ludwigs journey you gotta admire what this man brings to the table!
My only critique would be to stop the clock when there is a stoppage, other than that, it's pretty good.
Love that Shake and Lud’s other amazing editors are getting these up from the production truck in real time to prevent freebooters, just incredible
Polite is the other one ,there’s also radstats
Audio's fucked tho
They will probably fix the audio later but you can tell the excitement from all of them I was the same watching it live so I don't mind
@@coldfutures it was confusing hearing multiple layers of commentary over each other at a couple points.

🙏🏽♟🥊
I hope we have more events like these in the future, they’re so hype!!
Overtflow was so humble and dignified in his little speech at the end. Seems like a legit guy

This was genuinely one of the funnest events I’ve watched and I wish I could’ve been there in person if it wasn’t for the distance 😂
16:00
For anyone wondering the fight is: Nicholas Pettas vs Young Hyun Kim
Thanks, I was looking for it!
All the matches were so hype, but I loved how this one went all the way to the end. They both put up a great fight on chess and boxing
this was the perfect game in terms of strategy
It's been awesome to watch Chris's progress this year. I've been rooting for him as soon as I saw he'd signed up. Glad to see him to stick it through to a victory.
Both players in both games did so well, gg to the both of them, and congrats for Chris for winning!
Those announcers were top tier, I’ve never been so invested in either a boxing match or a chess match, much less both combined.
Wah Chris is so cool for doing this in the final box. 24:34 I can almost feel the rush he must have felt.
That was his only good move while boxing. The rest of the time he was jus too darn affable.
Definitely one of the biggest surprises in the show. I don't think most of us thought this would go the distance, congrats to both fighters and players.
Chris may have lost the six-pack challenge, but man is still affable 👌
I was rooting for Chris, one of the best channels on RUclips easily. It was great seeing American Pete in his corner. I do have to give props to Overtflow, sounded like a really cool guy and was honorable even taking the L. Big props to both guys. Happy my guy won but both deserve the best.
Chris got a huge physical diasdvantage over Overtflow and somehow he pulls off the clutch win
Chris boxes like he's about to get drafted to fight the Nazis.
With a 5 inch weight advantage, this match was a good one
Must be measuring their waistlines. "Five inch waist advantage."
class acts on both sides. Loved the mutual respect, the excitement from both competitors, their coaches both seemed very proud of their efforts. Knowing the backstory, was cheering for Chris the whole time, but Overtflow really charmed the audience with his attitude. great match
Ngl, Chris pulled off a real miracle not to get knocked out. Say what you will, but that match-up was brutal, especially without a helmet. Dude was clearly outmatched in reach, experience and fitness, but still fought admirably. Mad props to him.
That was all I wanted for Chris-mas!!!! Such a great match!
Chris and Connor clutch their matches!!! that was epic
Was praying for Chris, so glad he won and didnt die from Overtflow.
Props to overtflow being humble in defeat, great fight from both fighters
So proud of Chris. Man the commentary was so good for this. S-tier commentators for sure.
'Thanks sharla for putting up with me' so cute
Chris in there like an English bulldog. Little reach, but going for it with the boxing. Mad respect for that.
Its crazy how the chess was more exciting then the fight
I said this during the livestream, but I really think this is a testament to how much the pressure and stress from boxing can affect one's chess performance. Fantastic show!
Had to be one of the most affable W's I've ever seen live.
A "5-inch" difference in weight lmao
The grappling that Overtflow was doing was called clinching, it is a legal move in boxing.
My man Overtfow really was dominating in both chess and boxing, can't believe Chris actually pulled it through.
Much respect to both the players for delivering the most entertaining match of the evening.
I've never been so excited for a sports event. I was screaming this whole time. So glad to see Chris win
How are they getting the fights up this quick ??
Shake and the rest of Lud’s amazing editors are working at the event itself to get these uploaded before freebooters :)

I could've sworn that the audio was okay in the stream before the 8min mark of the video.
I'm so insanely proud of all the hard work Chris has been doing
Really cool and fun to watch. Big shout out to Overtflow! He jumped in, had so much less preparation time, made this match even possible and delivered a great show, while being great sports.
He really questioned the Mr. Affable Titel right there. Chris has to be careful or he looses his title.
I'm sooo happy an imaginary sport created by Enki Bilal for a french comic becam a real thing with taking so serious for so many people.
Well done to Mr. Affable for abroading all over the place
Great to see them go for the full set of rounds and have the tension ramp up over both of their mis-steps.
Well played Chris and Overtflow,
I can’t wait to see the anime version of this! Awesome match! Is there anything Chris Broad can’t do?
Someone needs to make this now, it would be immense!
@@dreamerlotus TheOdd1sOut seems appropriate...
Am I the only one who noticed him saying “5 inch difference in weight”? 😂
this was my favorite match by far nice job chris!!
Best fight of the night. Both wanted it and put in a hell of a show.
Love Chris, and Overflow was so good too! Congratulations Abroad in Japan!!! You totally deserve this victory!
The queen sacrifice and the delay in 3rd round was all to give the fans a memorable show. Mr. Affable being a true gigachad.
Overtflow was so gracious. Should check him out.
Congrats to Chris!!! And to win with Dr. Joey "Jelly" Benzinger smiling in his crotch!
these clips are coming out fast Lud is still live.
The technical difficulties really made this matchup a mess
the difference in form and ring experience was enomous, overflow looked so much more relaxed and confident. and chris didn´t even seem to want to hit anything but his gloves. but also chris didn´t seemed to be intimidated much by him and he has some real explosive energy that just needs to be directed. so a lot of untapped potential, would love to see how this looks after another 6 or 12 months of training.
I don’t know what Chris’s strategy was but I think Chris jabbed the gloves for a reason. I think he was trying to subdue Overflow’s lead hand the hand Overflow consistently landed.
Overtflow kept using only one arm. He came out in the ring with a glove and also never removed it from his left arm. Perhaps he had an injury?
Overtflow fought on KSI vs Logan he has more experience
this is the most British sport I've ever seen
So proud of Chris! Truly an affable man! Warmed my heart that he thanked Sharla in his winnig speech
My boy Chris! Those matches was unbelievable !
good speech from Overtflow who otherwise threw a match he had all rights to win.
Good Job Chris, this is the match of the night doesn't come close. LESSS GOOOO
This was such an exhilarating match. Well done CHRIS!!!!
How
Genuinely so proud of Chris, never been so invested in a boxing match before haha
5:17 Chris broad ain't slick like that🤣🤣
this was definitely the most affable match in the event
"Abroad in Japan" had a checkmate, sacrificed his Queen instead, made an illegal rook move, and won in the confusion on time. Awesome.
Not familiar with overtflow but that man is such a sport, in both the speech and during the rounds.
Best match of the night, what a couple of fighters!
The best thing about the doubled up audio 6:45 is that you basically get to watch it twice
better change title to chris vs overflow, people know overflow, he the goat
That event was an absolute W.
Ludwig with the "5 inch difference in weight"
God I'm so proud of Chris, he clutched that so hard!!!
This is a very clever idea ludwig well done !! Much love to everyone involved !! Pray yall keep building these events up out there keep dat business boomin
that chess match was so scuffed but amazing to watch
When I saw that Levy was going to commentate, I already loved it
Seeing Chris grow so much these last 3 years, has been fantastic. Holy crap. Awesome. So proud of you man. Also. Fucking Pete. Nice!
LETS GOOO MY GOAT MR. AFFABLE DOES NOT MISSSS
Ooooh Chris had his marathon friend with him, epic man's a beast
