According to a statement from the streaming service, viewership reached a peak of 65 million streams during the broadcast VG.
Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson (58) had no chance against YouTuber Jake Paul (27). After eight laps were completed, Paul was again the clear winner on points.
However, the broadcast was marked by technical problems for Netflix. The broadcast went down for counting shortly before the match started, which meant that many people either did not get to see anything of the match, or only saw a little.
At its peak, more than 90,000 users reported problems with Netflix, according to downtime monitoring website Downdetector.
