Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson is a fight that will create history for many reasons, but there are still things that can be improved.
Paul vs Tyson finally takes place tonight after the original 20 July bout was rescheduled after ‘Iron Mike’ suffered an ulcer flare-up.
A record 80,000 fans are inside the AT&T Stadium while there are also millions around the world watching on Netflix. However, it isn’t going as smoothly as expected.

Taking to X, fans complained in their thousands. One user said: “If Netflix doesn’t fix this buffering issue, this will go down as one of the biggest fails in all of tv/streaming history.”
A second added: “Anyone’s Netflix keep crashing? Tryna watch the fight but my TV is stuck buffering at 25%.
“Stream crashed like 15 times 144p and constant buffering don’t even care who wins at this point cancelling my Netflix subscription lol,” said a third.
Another commented: “Can’t even watch the fight without a buffer every 30 seconds.”
