Enraged customers who paid $100 and were unable to stream the Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor fight were directed Sunday to email UFC’s streaming provider, NeuLion. The main event was delayed about 20 minutes because of what Showtime, the fight’s primary broadcaster, described as “scattered outages.” Those outages, however, appeared to be widespread and largely comprised of those who purchased the fight with UFC’s app that runs on several different devices, including video game systems, smart phones, computers and TV streaming devices. Mayweather told reporters after his 10-round victory that the pay-per-view was impacted by server issues in Florida and California. The potential record PPV audience for a boxing event was projected to be around 5 million buys, although it’s unclear how many used streaming options as opposed to the more traditional cable and satellite route
