Spain is making streaming history. Ibai Llanos Garatea, most commonly known as Ibai has shattered his personal best and even rewrote the Twitch record books by entering the list as the second most concurrent viewers ever with his La Velada del Año stream.

The Spanish content creator teased his Twitter followers by betting against himself right from the get-go. “If today we hit some time during the stream one million viewers, I pledge to organize another Velada on 26th May 2022 and fight myself”, he tweeted. 

Less than an hour in, the stream surpassed the one million concurrent viewers milestone, making Ibai the second highest peak in concurrent viewers stream holder in Twitch history and turning the 26-year-old into a boxer in one year's time.ibai 1 millon million twitch(Picture: Twitch)

The boxing event features three matches, Mister Jagger vs Viruzz, Reven vs Elmillor and Future vs Torete which are helping bring plenty of European eyes to the streaming platform.
