Paul vs. Tyson Fight Breaks Netflix as Fans Report Streaming Issues

As a seasoned fight enthusiast who has witnessed countless bouts, both live and on screen, I must say this anticipated showdown between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is shaping up to be an unforgettable spectacle – if only the streaming issues could be resolved! The constant buffering and freezing is reminiscent of my old dial-up internet days, and it’s hard not to chuckle at the irony that a modern streaming giant like Netflix is experiencing such hiccups during one of its most heavily promoted events.


The eagerly anticipated battle between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is unfolding right now, yet things aren’t running perfectly smoothly. This seems to be due to a massive influx of viewers overwhelming Netflix’s servers, leading to chaos with the live stream. Viewers are expressing their frustration on social media about the persistent buffering issues, and some can’t even watch the action unfold as the stream freezes. Fingers crossed it gets resolved soon, but with an hour gone by, they need to act swiftly to prevent any interruptions during the main event.

User @LogicalTrad1ng expressed, “Is anyone else experiencing streaming troubles with the Paul and Logan fight on Netflix? Shaking my head! #Netflix.” On the other hand, user @DanielG__83 commented, “Well done @netflix, the endless loop of buffering. I’m sure it will improve as more viewers join in, won’t it?” Lastly, user AntdoggII tweeted, “My Netflix stream is frozen?!? Already?!? @netflix.

Many users are encountering significant delays and others are simply abandoning the stream altogether. It’s surprising given the extensive promotion for this event, but if the problems are resolved prior to the main event, many viewers may overlook some of these issues. However, if technical difficulties continue during the Tyson vs Paul fight, there will likely be intense debates about future live events.

For tonight’s featured matches, Paul versus Tyson takes center stage as the headlining event. Following this, the co-main event will showcase a Super Lightweight Fight between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano. The undercard will offer a WBC Welterweight Battle with Mario “El Azteca” Barrios going up against Abel Ramos, and a Super Middleweight Encounter featuring Neeraj Goyat versus Whindersson Nunes.

The fight was initially scheduled for earlier this year, but it got pushed back to November 15th because Tyson experienced an ulcer flare-up. After recovering and getting back to full health, there were multiple encounters between the two over the following weeks and months. This culminated in today’s weigh-in, where Tyson tried to convey a message by slapping Paul across the face.
