    ESPN have it listed as 12 rounds. Make of that what you will.

        Originally it was for 12. Booth and Haye now demand 10.

          "Frank Warren said it" is not a good enough source for me, no.

          Not that I'm dis*****g it, just I'd find it shocking if true and very surprised it hasn't been announced yet.
          yeah its true, was watching the countdown on boxnation, its a ten round fight - i was pretty surprised

            But usually these bullshit title fights are scheduled for 12.

              it's no small advantage, either.

              nothing involving david haye surprises me. the man is truly a clown.

                Haye trying to move the goalposts at the last minute. The guy is truly pathetic. But we all knew Haye don't give a shlt about the fans, so this really shouldn't come as any surprise.

                  well the accepted wisdom is haye early or chisora late ... chisora doesn't have the big one punch early ko power and will need to wear haye down, 10 rounds instead of 12 gives haye a big advantage, though frank warren was trying to claim the opposite. It also means haye can feel more confident about pushing harder in those first few rounds without having to worry quite so much about gassing in the championship rounds.

                    Haye and Booth are a couple of con-men.

                      Haye and Booth saw that Dereck won the 12th vs Vitali and that shook them up because Davey will be knackered by then.

                      Who knows what else they will come up with before the fight takes place?
