Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It's nearly here - not long to go now until the richest fight in boxing history, the super-fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas, but where should your money go? Here are some of the best bets.
The welterweight contest at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas is expected to generate more than £300m for the pair, with the split going 60/40 in Mayweather's favour.
Unbeaten Mayweather, 38, is an 11-time, five-weight world champion, while the Filipino Pacquiao, 36, has won versions of the world title at a record eight different weights.
Not counting the free shot against Victor Ortiz in 2011, Mayweather has not had a legitimate knock-out since beating Ricky Hatton back in December 2007. You can get odds as high as 13/2 on Mayweather to win by KO, TKO or DQ.
For Pacquio to shock the world and win by a first-round knockout, that's 80/1.
For those two and more, watch the five best bets video on the fight below...
