Apparently Warren confirmed it on BoxNation.
I didn't see it myself but it's being discussed on ESB..
Anyone heard anything?

It's 100% a 10 rounder, even if it is for some WBA strap. Warren said so, as did Colin Hart. The reason, David Haye

I assume you'll be reinstated. It was always scheduled to be a 12 rounder, and this only came out today. So something must have happened with Haye in training. He threatens to pull out with injury, warren bends over backwards to keep the fight on.

For fuck's sake. I knew 4/1 for haye by KO in those rounds was too good to be true.

What a load of wank. I think Haye is gonna blow Chisora out early but the majority of us agree Del's best hope of victory was from the 8th round on, I would have actually favored him to do the job in them rounds.
Done the dirty on Derek here imo. I hope Haye blows him out so we don't get anymore controversy on the fight (and I win money)

Originally it was always a 10 rounder. Then the WBA and WBO got involved and it became a title fight over 12 rounds. Today, warren said 'Haye wanted it as a 10 rounder, we wanted 12'. Colin Hart then said 'I was shocked to learn today that it is now a 10 rounder for a title. That use to be the case in the time of Gene Tunney, but not anymore.'

Even if Haye wanted to, he couldn't turn around 4 days before the fight and demand the length gets changed. No fucking way. Warren would have sued him to hell & back if he threatend to pull out
This would have been ironed out months ago. I wouldn't trust a word that comes out of Warrens Mouth

Yeah of course this is warren we're talking about. But this would have become public ages ago if it was always on the cards. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I think Haye may have picked up a slight niggle and threatened to pull out, only for Warren to compromise. He looked absolute shit at the presser today.
That's only my opinion tho, and not based on much. Although Paddy Power have just announced they are refunding all losing 'round' betting in light of this news

It was probably 10 rounds all along but without boxrec to check where are you really going to find out?
