I\u2019m thinking the Canelo-Crawford number. What was that, 30 million? I think it\u2019s around that 30 million. Maybe they pick up two million new audience, three million new audience,\u201d he said on talkSPORT Boxing.<\/p>\n<p>Part of that confidence comes from Fury\u2019s visibility through Netflix\u2019s At Home with the Furys series. The program introduced him to subscribers outside boxing circles, giving the platform a recognizable personality to promote alongside Joshua.<\/p>\n<p>His target sits close to the figures Netflix released for Canelo-Crawford. The bout averaged 36.6 million global viewers from the opening bell through the final round, rising to 41.4 million under the Live+1 measurement.<\/p>\n<p>Paul-Tyson operated on an entirely different scale, averaging an estimated 108 million live viewers and peaking at 65 million concurrent streams. Fury-Joshua will struggle to approach those totals because it lacks the curiosity of a 58-year-old Tyson returning to face an internet celebrity.<\/p>\n<p>Reaching 30 million would still represent a major success. Both heavyweights remain household names in Britain after ten years of buildup. The harder task is attracting a large American audience, where neither boxer commands Canelo\u2019s devoted following.<\/p>\n<p>A New York venue with a Friday-night start would give Netflix ideal American viewing hours. British supporters would receive an overnight broadcast instead of the domestic stadium event originally discussed.<\/p>\n<p>The matchup has passed its prime, yet Davies believes an official announcement will increase public interest immediately. Once organizers confirm the date and venue, a decade of collapsed negotiations becomes the promotional hook instead of another reason to ignore the fight.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1787284698_20_hqdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cI\u2019m plucking a figure here, Ade, and I want yours as well.
