What did Oliver have for breakfast? We get to know Oliver ‘The Revolver’ Ye ahead of his bout against Jack Sheard. Oliver prefers to manage his range to make sure he can land his jabs without being hit where as Jack prefers to fight inside and isn’t afraid of being hit on the way in. Jack actively shows his aggression the ring like Marc ‘Essex Bomb’ Sidwell. Jack has a slight edge on the chess with 1o0 point advantage, they have played once and Jack was victorious. Jack teaches chess in prison, maybe that’s where he get is poker face from.

Oliver is playing black and is planning to react to Jack, doesn’t sound like he has much of a plan? He wants to be flexible in his approach.

Oliver’s diet include an ice cream bar, cookies and cream and then has a meal in the evening – possibly a chicken bake. Could Ollie pick up a sponsorship with the ice cream bar manufacturer. When he’s not chessboxing he loves gaming but now that he has a job with a bank he has less time to do it. However, he has been playing spell chess on chess.com which includes power ups and spells. The pod talks about 960 chess, Fisher Random chess as well as 4D chess.

Oliver is a relationship manager at a large bank so his job is taking people out to lunch but he is yet to get a company credit card unfortunalty. Maybe the next client night out could be a chessboxing event?! A number of this co-workers are coming in to cheer him, in fact his whole department is coming in.

Shout out to Double Jab amateur boxing club where Ollie is training. Mention for Gerard ‘Ripper’ Reilly, could he be matched against the winner? Ollie is also looking forward to seeing Matt and David fight because they are such strong chess players and they are also in the heavyweight category.
