The highly anticipated Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight is off to a rocky start for viewers trying to catch the action on Netflix. Fans have flooded social media with complaints about streaming issues, including lag, delays, and even complete stoppages. Thousands of users on X have shared videos of spinning loading wheels and frozen screens, while others report having to restart the Netflix app repeatedly to see any of the fight.
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy even posted a video showing his Netflix app crashing entirely, commenting, "Things are going bad to worse." Despite the technical difficulties, the live event at AT&T Stadium in Dallas has been delivering thrilling action, with Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano currently facing off in the ring. The much-awaited Tyson vs. Paul match is up next—hopefully, with fewer streaming issues for viewers tuning in. Netflix has yet to address the streaming problems publicly.
