Canelo vs. Crawford Clash Draws Massive 41 Million Viewers on Netflix, Becoming Century's Top Boxing Match

Over 41 million viewers tuned in to Netflix to watch Terence Crawford dethrone Canelo Alvarez for the undisputed super middleweight title in front of a sold-out Allegiant Stadium crowd Saturday night in Las Vegas, the streaming service announced Monday.

Canelo-Crawford didn't eclipse the 108 million viewers who watched Jake Paul's fight with Mike Tyson last November -- but it was easily the most-viewed men's championship boxing match of the century.
