The Terence Crawford-Canelo Alvarez title fight on Saturday drew 41.1 million viewers on Netflix, but that figure was nowhere close to the streaming service's top boxing attraction.

Per Netflix, the audience that saw Crawford take the championship from Alvarez was the highest for a men's championship boxing match of this century.

Still, it paled in comparison to the 108 million who streamed the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight in November. Also, on the undercard of Paul-Tyson, the second Katie Taylor-Amanda Serrano matchup for the women's light welterweight title attracted almost 50 million viewers, per Netflix.

The peak viewership for Crawford-Alvarez was more than 24 million concurrent streams, according to Netflix. The bout was the top-ranked program on Netflix in 30 nations, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Philippines, Australia and Argentina.

The live gate at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, where 70,482 were in attendance, was more than $47 million, a record for the facility. According to ESPN, the only boxing matches with higher gate receipts were Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao in May 2015 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, at $72 million, and Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor in August 2017 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, at $55 million.

Crawford won the Saturday match by unanimous decision to become the undisputed world super middleweight champion.
