HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. — A complaint was filed against Netflix for streaming issues during Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight that was streamed live on the platform Friday.
The class action complaint was filed against Netflix on Nov. 18 in the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit Court in Hillsborough County.
The complaint alleged that the Netflix stream of the fight was plagued by unrelenting buffering and said that "the most hyped fight in boxing history turned out to be a 'record night,' not for the fight(s) but the money Netflix stole."
Netflix said the Paul vs Tyson fight had over 108 million live global viewers.
They accused the company in the filing of failing to fulfill contractual obligations and engaged in deceptive trade practices.

“We need to listen to the voice of the people, right?”
Last summer, the Florida Department of Environment Protection considered adding amenities like golf courses, pickleball courts, and hotels to state parks across the state. After public outcry, the plans were shelved, but the fight isn't over for some Florida residents.
