Yeah, the funny part is that Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Peacock have all demonstrated the ability to handle an event of this caliber with no issue. Netflix now may never get another opportunity like this again.



AFAIK those three farm out to CDNs with tons of edges who know what they're doing.

I have a feeling Netflix said 'how hard could this be?' and is finding out right now.


Sure they will. They’ll just set up the next event and outside of some tech folks no one will remember this.


I mean, I guarantee you every boxing fan is never going to trust Netflix again for an event like this.


What are they going to do? Just not watch the next fight?


0 people give a shit about boxing fans. It’s not up to them.


Chances are Jake might fight Connor McGregor. Sure, Connor is not as famous as Tyson but that will also invite a large number of people to stream it.
