Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will face off in a boxing match on Friday, marking Netflix's largest live sports event to date. The fight will stream globally for Netflix's 280 million subscribers at no extra cost, in multiple languages. Originally set for July, the bout was postponed due to Tyson's health issues. Analysts predict it could become one of the most-watched boxing matches, leveraging Netflix's extensive subscriber base and its growing focus on live sports. Netflix is also preparing to stream NFL games and WWE events, starting with "Raw" in January. This expansion into live sports aims to enhance Netflix's programming and attract more viewers.
