At least one Netflix customer was disappointed enough over the company's glitchy livestream of last Friday's fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson that he's gone to court.

Ronald "Blue" Denton, a resident of Hillsborough County, Fla., who says he is a Netflix subscriber, sued the company in Florida state court. The lawsuit, filed Monday, seeks unspecified monetary damages and class-action status on behalf of other consumers who were affected. The lawsuit accuses Netflix of breach of contract and deceptive trade practices under Florida law, per WFLA-TV. Denton's complaint alleges Netflix was "woefully ill-prepared" for the high demand of the Paul-Tyson fight, and that the livestream was "unwatchable" because of the problems.
