Major concern raised just hours ahead of Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn fight

Fans have expressed major concern for the Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn fight just hours before the rivals square off inside the ring.

The two meet in the main event of a stacked card at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday night, with the IBO middleweight title on the line.

The build-up wasn't without issues as Eubank Jr failed to make the 160lbs weight by 0.05lbs on Friday and was forced into paying a £375,000 fine to his opponent - before then making the 170lbs rehydration limit on the day of the fight.

Eubank's team were unhappy with the gloves provided and approved by the British Boxing Board of Control in behind the scenes but had to accept no changes could be made at such a late stage.

However, fans tuning in for the undercard observed the very same issue for fighters and worried that it could spoil what promises to be an excellent all-British affair on a big stage.

In the middle of the canvas is a giant 'Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves' logo as part of a major sponsorship deal between the fighting video game and Ring Magazine, which is hosting its first event.

The logo, which was rolled at WWE's WrestleMania 41 event in Las Vegas last week, caused problems aplenty for multiple fighters, leading to plenty of viewers weighing in on the slips.

One commented: "Someone get a bit of sand paper on that canvas logo before it ruins the event!!! Seems a bit Dangerous to me."

A second added: "I hope that slippery canvas doesn’t become a story in the main event tonight."

A third fumed: "I’ve thought all week what the controversy could be tonight during the fight, they have to do something for the rematch to be equally as lucrative as this one. Looks like the controversy is come in the form of the slippery canvas."

A fourth stated: "Dodgy knockdown in the main event, caused by a slip on the Fatal Fury canvas logo. Log it."
