That's an interesting idea. The main problem I see is that it would take away a lot of the advantage of taking pieces.

  Good point. You'd probably want to match "piece strength" with weight class then, so that a pawn vs. queen is not a fair fight by any means.

    But 8 of the boxers would be pawns, so how do you make sure the attacking pawn wins at least half the time?

    That would go some way towards solving it. But what about e.g. a pawn taking a pawn? It's an interesting thought experiment...
