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.Sugar Ray Leonard yesterday announced he will return to the ring with a fight against Hector Camacho in February.
Despite more than five years out of the ring, he insisted: "I'm pretty good at boxing, even at age 40. I'm a young 40. I just happen to be a grandfather. I'm very excited about my venture back into the ring."
Could he win another world title? "When there's a reason to do something, nothing stands in my way," he said. "It's only been five years."
Leonard, who won an Olympic gold in 1976 and professional titles at five weights, has not fought since losing on points to Terry Norris in February 1991, when he took a fierce pounding.
