Adult star is evicted from Airbnb after sleeping with 55 'barely legal' high school graduates

Friday night saw one of the most highly-anticipated boxing events in history unfold in front of 72,000 fans at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

With seven fights on the card, two co-main events, and the in-ring return of a boxing legend (with the promise that he could KO a YouTuber), then it's no surprise that people poured into the stadium.

However, the event was also available to stream for Netflix users across the globe.

Fans watched as Katie Taylor successfully defended her undisputed super lightweight championship against Amanda Serrano (albeit, in controversial fashion), and the night was topped off by 58-year-old Mike Tyson stepping back between the ropes against 27-year-old Jake Paul.

Now, disregarding the quality of the final fight, to see "Iron" Mike fighting his first professional boxing match in 19 years wasn't just special, it was history in the making.

And viewers knew this.

In fact, Netflix have now announced that, "the boxing mega-event dominated social media, shattered records, and even had our buffering systems on the ropes", in a tweet shared on Saturday (November 16),

The streaming giant then announced that a whopping "60 million households around the world tuned in live to watch Paul vs. Tyson".

This is lower than Jake Paul's estimated "120 million" that he referred to post-fight, but we've got to believe most households had more than one person watching - that that number surely isn't far off.

Netflix added that 50 million tuned in to watch the co-main event fight between Amanda Serrano and defending champion Katie Taylor, which the platform states means the match is "likely to be the most watched professional women's sporting event in U.S. history". A huge accomplishment for women in the sport!

However, as Netflix acknowledged, Friday night certainly didn't go off without a hitch.

Buffering issues led to many viewers raging on social media, with some X users vowing to cancel their subscriptions altogether.

"Netflix has absolutely no idea how to do a live stream - they lack the proper infrastructure [sic]," one person tweeted. "Months of waiting for this disappointment, can't even watch the fight. Constant 25% buffering. Canceling my subscription indefinitely."

"Cancelling my subscription to Netflix because you all dropped the ball," another tweeted to the platform.

In fact, per the New York Post, Down Detector reported 88,000 streaming problems Friday night.

Ouch. Let's hope they can do enough to resolve these issues for future events.

The first man to undergo a face and double hand transplant has recently made a massive announcement.

In August 2020, Joe DiMeo underwent a revolutionary medical procedure that saw him become the world's first person to successfully receive a face and double hand transplant after suffering from a terrible accident two years prior.

The then 20-year-old was involved in a car accident after he fell asleep at the wheel of his Dodge Challenger while returning home from a night shift. The vehicle ended up hitting a curb before catching fire.

If it wasn't for the two people who stopped and dragged DiMeo out of the car, he may have not lived to tell his incredible story.

He was rushed to the hospital where it was confirmed that he had suffered third-degree burns to over 80 percent of his body.

Doctors placed him in an induced coma before he was forced to have his fingertips amputated and undergo more than 20 reconstructive surgeries.

Then in 2020, he was given the chance to make medical history by becoming the first person to undergo a face and double hand transplant and despite only having a six percent chance of it being successful, he agreed.

The surgery lasted a whopping 23 hours and took place at NYU Langone in New York City. In the end, it was a huge success.

"We wanted to give him not only an operation that made him look better, but it ultimately had to work ideally, especially with the hands," explained Eduardo Rodriguez, director of the Face Transplant Program at NYU.

DiMeo then spent a further 45 days in intensive care and then another two months in the hospital, where he had to learn how to open his new eyelids and his new hands.

Rodriguez said that his patient was the "most highly motivated patient" he had ever met.

"He wants to work on sports, he loves to play golf, and he wants to get back to the course. I'm always impressed by the amount of weight that he can lift and the quality of his grip strength," the expert added.

Four years on from that moment DiMeo is now thriving and has even made a massive personal announcement.

He is now engaged to his girlfriend Jessica Koby!

The pair initially met when Koby reached out to him via Instagram after hearing about his journey. They quickly started up a friendship that turned romantic and now, it seems as though they're ready for a new chapter in their love story.

Taking to Instagram, DiMeo recently shared some adorable photos of the pair with their Boston Terrier dogs alongside the caption: "Big things going down on December 5th", with emojis of a bride and groom.

Koby can also be seen wearing an engagement ring in the photo.

The 33-year-old also shared a video of the proposal on her own account, showing her fiancé getting down on one knee.

"I guess I’m the right one Joe asked and I said yes. I can’t wait @joeroydimeo," she captioned the clip.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

With an estimated 120 million people tuning into Netflix to watch last night's highly anticipated night of boxing, it's no surprise that every small detail is being talked about in the fallout.

From Mike Tyson's butt becoming an unexpected star of the show to the legendary boxer's big "missed opportunity", there were a number of eyebrow-raising moments.

But as the "Baddest Man on the Planet" competed in his first professional fight for 19 years in front of 72,000 at AT&T Stadium, one small detail that did not escape the eagle eyes of viewers or the commentary team was Mike Tyson's penchant for biting his gloves.

"Why does Tyson keep biting his glove? Is it so he doesn’t bite Jake? TYSON PLEASE BITE HIS EAR OFF," one fan wrote.

And there were a lot of suggestions about why he was doing it, with retired world champ Tony Bellew tweeting: "Mike's biting his glove cos he’s in pain."

"His mind, training and muscle memory is there but his body isn't cooperating. Imagine knowing exactly how to do something and wanting to but your body won't let you," another wrote. "It's frustrating, so he bites his glove out of frustration."

Others who firmly believe the fight was stage believe Tyson was biting his clove as a way of stopping himself just KO-ing Paul. "Mike Tyson had the chance to finish off Jake Paul at this very moment," one person wrote. "You know he thought about it. Then he bit his glove."

"Mike Tyson actually had to bite his gloves so not to throw them. He was holding back his instinct. #rigged," another wrote

Sharing their theory about Tyson using the gesture as a "sign" for Paul to pull his punches, another X user suggested: "Mike Tyson biting his glove so frequently was a signal for Jake Paul to pull his punches.

"Then continue swinging when he stopped biting his glove. Watch for the pattern."

And sharing a video of Tyson during training, another claimed: "The match is fixed and was just for done for money. I mean Jake Paul was sweating [compared] to Mike. Biting the gloves was all to hold himself back from KILLING him. They told him not kill him."

However, after the fight, Tyson happily addressed the glove biting in a post-match interview.

When interviewer Ariel Helwani pointed out that some of the commentary team had been questioning what the in-ring gesture was all about, 58-year-old Tyson replied: "That was a habit of mine, biting my glove when I fight [...]

"I have a biting fixation."

Of course, this tongue-in-cheek admission by Tyson harks back to his infamous 1997 disqualification during a match against Evander Holyfield, where Tyson startlingly bit off part of Holyfield’s ear.

The bite landed Tyson a $3 million fine and a one-year ban from the sport.

"I’ve heard about that,” Helwani quipped: “I don’t want to know more…”

Paul unanimously claimed a victory over Tyson, scoring an unequivocal win on all scorecards with 80-72, 79-73, 79-73.

Despite the jest, Friday’s face-off marked a significant moment for Tyson, who was stepping back into the professional ring for the first time since his 2005 knockout loss to Kevin McBride. Although he had a less consequential bout against Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition match in 2020, this was Tyson’s reentry into professional boxing.

And sadly, it appears that it'll be his last. When asked if he's be returning to the ring in the future, "Iron Mike" said: "I don’t know. It depends on the situation [...] I don’t think so."

"I didn’t prove nothing to anyone, just myself," Tyson continued. "I’m not one of these guys who goes out to please the world, I’m just happy with what I can do."

On the flip side, Jake Paul’s victory only adds another feather to his cap, pushing his professional record to an impressive 11-1. Having already conquered a slew of mixed martial arts fighters and lesser-known boxers, Paul’s triumph over the boxing titan further cements his place in the combat sports world.

And the crowd went... mild.

Despite being perhaps the most anticipated boxing fight this century, Jake Paul versus the legendary Mike Tyson fell flat.

Are we really surprised? At 58 years old, Tyson may always be "the Baddest Man on the Planet", but his time in the ring looks to be done, as the 27-year-old Jake Paul emerged victorious via unanimous decision.

With the fight being streamed live on Netflix, it was undoubtedly going to pull in millions of viewers. In fact, Paul said in his post-fight interview that is believed around 120 million viewers tuned in for a night of boxing.

However, some of those viewers may not be logging back in.

Yes, following the fight result, many viewers have taken to social media to announce that they will be deleting their Netflix accounts.

This also comes after endless tweets and comments about users experiencing streaming issues during the live event - with many plagued by the red buffering ring for much of the evening.

"Netflix has absolutely no idea how to do a live stream - they lack the proper infrastructure [sic]," one person tweeted. "Months of waiting for this disappointment, can't even watch the fight. Constant 25% buffering. Canceling my subscription indefinitely."

Another disappointed viewer wrote: "I will be canceling my Membership after you all completely screw the streaming up!"

"I’m canceling Netflix. I couldn’t watch it live and it was 1972 resolution," another wrote.

One furious viewer tweeted: "Netflix, you suck. You are by far the worst streaming service. I, and just about everyone I know is canceling our subscriptions. You made us miss parts of the fight because you don't know how to anticipate server loads, and your announcer got Tyson's age incorrect."

"Cancelling my subscription to Netflix because you all dropped the ball," another tweeted to the platform.

"Hey @netflix, do we cancel outright or request a refund?" Another wrote. "Asking for millions worldwide."

How do you cancel your Netflix account?

So, how do you cancel your Netflix subscription?

Well, according to the streaming giant, the instructions are as follows: Go to your Account page and look under the Membership section.

"You'll see either a link to guide you through the cancellation process or instructions to contact your payment partner to cancel. If you cancel with time left in your billing period, you can use Netflix until the end of the billing period."

Netflix adds: "Signing out of your account or deleting the Netflix app doesn't cancel your account."

Nevertheless, now we've all watched Jake Paul earn the right to say that he has defeated Mike Tyson.

No matter what you think about Jake Paul being a YouTuber-turned-boxer or about the legendary Mike Tyson stepping foot in the ring at the age of 58 against somebody 31 years his junior... this was a must-watch fight.

It was the biggest age gap in a professionally sanctioned boxing match. And despite the excitement, I think the fight went exactly how many of us expected.

Paul was driven to the ring in a Chevvy, to the sounds of Phil Collin's 'In The Air Tonight' and a chorus of boos from those in attendance at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

However, Tyson was showered with cheers - as the estimated 72,000 in attendance were just in awe at seeing the boxing legend once again return to the ring for a professional bout. "Welcome home, 'Iron' Mike Tyson!"

The first couple of rounds were certainly a feeling-out process, with not much action taking place. By the third round, however, it was evident Tyson was rocked, as Paul continued to display youth over experience.

By the sixth round, the fight had slowed down, and the action was just... lacking, with Paul landing more hits than Tyson. At times, it looks like Paul could have ended it whenever he wanted.

By the seventh round, Tyson was displaying perhaps one short burst of fury per round, but it wasn't enough to knock down the younger Paul.

In the eighth round, it was like both men knew what the result was going to be. Jake bowed down to Tyson in the final seconds, and Tyson offered his glove in a sign of respect.

By the final bell, both fighters were booed. It was not the fight people wanted.

The judges' decision was predictable, and Paul emerged victorious by a unanimous decision. One judge scored it 80-72 with two judges seeing it as a 79-73 win for Paul.

Nevertheless, with the hype and excitement - and the sheer spectacle of seeing Tyson back in the ring - there's no doubt this was a special fight... just... slightly underwhelming.

In fact, BBC Sport reported that some fans were leaving before the conclusion. Ouch.

Prior to the Tyson/Paul fight, viewers were left in awe by the event's co-main event, as Katie Taylor narrowly clinched victory against Amanda Serrano in a nail-biting rematch.

Despite being shaken by a powerful right hand from Serrano in the opening round, Taylor managed to pull through and secure a unanimous (albeit controversial) decision from the judges, all scoring the fight 95-94 in her favor.

The match intensified when Serrano suffered a significant cut in the sixth round as the result of an accidental headbutt.

The two fighters pushed each other to the limits, but it was Taylor who emerged victorious, holding her ground in a thrilling encounter that kept the audience on the edge of their seats.

Serrano said after her loss: "I knew when it went to the judges it was going to be a little shady. Listen, I chose to fight. I went up three divisions. I lost in two and I dared to be great tonight. I am the featherweight champion of the world. I want to be great. I only fight the best. It is what it is. I'm a featherweight."

Speaking about her injury, she added: "Every time you get a cut it hurts. You get blood in your eye. She kept headbutting me, but we knew that from the very beginning, the first fight. It's not only my fight, she did it with Chantelle Cameron. Listen, I am Puerto Rican. No matter how many cuts, I will fight to the very end."

And speaking on her victory, Taylor said post-fight: "It's very hard to tell during the fight. I knew it was an absolute slug fest in there, an absolute war. Thank God I came out on the winning side.

"Thank you to Amanda, she's a fantastic champion. I think we agreed to 12, three minute rounds in our next fight. The triple is on.

"That's what a boxer does. We train to be able to recover from those punches. She's a hard puncher. A very tough warrior. I was prepared for that. I don't care if the commentary team or the crowd disagree with the result. The only ones who matter are the judges around the ring. So thank God.

"I definitely didn't agree with the point deduction. I certainly wasn't fighting dirty. Sometimes it gets rough in there.

"This is an amazing moment for women's boxing. We put on another amazing show."

One thing is for sure: What an incredible night of boxing.
