how many people are watching the canelo fight

The Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford fight, which took place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, was broadcast live on Netflix and is estimated to have had a viewing audience potentially rivaling the biggest boxing events in history. Although the exact real-time viewership count is not given here, experts like Max Kellerman expect it to be the most-watched championship fight in almost 50 years, possibly exceeding tens of millions of viewers globally thanks to Netflix's vast subscriber base, which was over 300 million worldwide at the time of the fight. For scale, the previous major Netflix boxing event, Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson, drew around 60 million viewers worldwide. Allegiant Stadium had a capacity of about 67,000 for the event, indicating a large live attendance plus the streaming audience. This move to streaming platforms rather than traditional pay-per-view models suggests the fight could have reached hundreds of millions of viewers globally, a major shift from the typical PPV buys in the low millions for big fights.
