Kick streamer Zein sets new viewership record with huge boxing stream
Multiple Spanish-speaking streamers have been breaking streaming records of late, and now Kick streamer Andy “Zein” Dante Merino has reached a new viewership milestone for the platform.
Spanish streamers are currently in high demand, with the biggest among them setting new records across multiple streaming platforms. Kick has become the most popular streaming platform
for Spanish streamers, and according to recent statistics, they get the most Spanish-language viewers as well. Spanish steamer Ibai Llanos Garatea recently broke Twitch’s
highest peak viewership
record, and it appears Kick took that personally.
Kick streamer Zein broadcast a boxing stream that millions of concurrent viewers tuned in for, helping the content creator to
secure a new record.
Zein helped Kick secure third spot for the highest peak stream viewership
Kick streamer Zein’s boxing stream helped the platform earn the third spot for highest peak stream viewership among other competing streaming platforms.
The boxing event called “The Golden Night” managed to attract 2,556,123 peak concurrent viewers, helping creator Zein secure the new record. The content creator’s new record places Kick in the top three alongside older platforms Twitch and YouTube. Zein attracted a significant 1.36 million viewers, all of whom tuned in to the August 2 broadcast itself.
Kick
The Golden Night was held at Eduardo Dibós Coliseum in Lima, Peru, and was attended by many of the top content creators from the region. French Minecraft streamer Gabriel “Shadoune666” Marolt Perez was among the popular online figures in attendance. Shadoune has streamed multiple Spanish Minecraft events and is known to collaborate with the top Spanish streamers.
The Golden Night event also featured musical performances by Peruvian singer Carlos “Tomate” Barraza, Peruvian punk rock band 6 Volts, Peruvian progressive rap band M2H, and Peruvian-American singer A.CHAL.
