Without a doubt the biggest pop culture event of the weekend was the Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight night, streamed by Netflix.

Leading up to the event I had expected to write about how interesting it was that everyone had been talking about this event. Kids around our neighborhood from elementary to high school age were all talking about it. All of the parents too. What a coup for Netflix.

It turned out to be more complicated with Netflix struggling under the load of over 60 million households tuning in to the stream! Wow. That’s an incredible hit. Regardless of the streaming woes, this seems to be a pretty big success for Netflix’s first live boxing event.

For context, this was more viewers than the final of the World Series, NBA Finals, or Wimbledon this year. Incredible.
