As in, he got another kickboxer to pretend to be him and fight in his place?

  It's a fairly well-known trick where you play 2 strong players at the same time: You take the first player's move as white and play it yourself as white in the other game. So the two boards have the same position, with you playing different colours. That way you will have an even score in the 2 games. He did that with 4 pairs and the 9th was the head of the uni chess orgnisation, a weak player he beat easily.

    Yes, I was just wondering if I was missing something about the kickboxing comparison, because presumably Tim Ferriss did actually fight more or less on his own merits?
