It was another record-breaking night for Ibai “ibai” Llanos on July 26 as he organized the fifth edition of his acclaimed influencer boxing event, La Velada del Año. Considering its global impact and steady viewership progression, most followers, including Streams Charts, had predicted that it would set new milestones.
However, very few people would have said it would absolutely shatter anything else previously seen from Ibai or the platform itself. That is what happened on Saturday night, as the livestream for La Velada del Año V attracted hitherto unseen viewership numbers and solidified its creator's name in the annals of content creation history.
The La Velada Del Año V broke a string of milestones and helped Twitch reach an audience peak that might have gone beyond the dreams of its creator itself. Channel, platform, and follower records were all obliterated as the boxing event showcased the power of good production, marketing, and advertising to the world, along with the clout that the most famous streamers can boast of in 2025.
Streams Charts has put together a list of all the records Ibai has broken with his latest livestreaming endeavor. With these milestones, the Spanish superstar has undoubtedly created something that has transcended the livestreaming sphere and become a worldwide phenomenon in the sporting and entertainment segments.
All the records Ibai broke during the La Velada del Año V
- Overall top channel by all-time Peak Viewers in livestreaming (9,334,179 PV)

With his other ventures, especially the Kings League, seeing lots of success in livestreaming and as entities in themselves, it’s safe to say that the 30-year-old has gone beyond just being a successful content creator. He has built an empire that has made him a celebrity not only in his homeland but in the Hispanic and global communities, and it remains to be seen how he tops the milestones set at the La Velada Del Año V.
