I was streaming at home from my Comcast/Xfinity coax connection , and had a terrible experience for most of the last 3 fights to the point it was completely unwatchable at times. I was texting with friends and family from all over the midwest and everyone I spoke with experienced buffering, freezing and outages. From the small amount of data I have it appears the cable providers suffered the most (Comcast, Spectrum & Cox).

I haven't seen or heard of any definitive choke points as of yet. I thought it might have been a perfect storm of; Netflix cloud infrastructure issues and network congestion issues.

I saw reports of 60 million+ users streaming the fight.

It's clear things broke, and now there are elements to fix and make better.

We’re getting complaints. Haven’t identified any obvious on-net issues (yet?).

I’m actually remote and streaming on Comcast which has been mostly OK with a couple “stream not available” errors.

Roughly 3x normal Netflix peaks.

I'm seeing issues depending on which Netflix cache I hit. It fails to show the live event when the client picks mine (which I know to be serving large amounts of data, but well within its capacity, and serves other content just fine), or that of one of my upstreams. But other caches work fine.
