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.Tottenham's Mark Prince will be up against it in Hamburg this evening when he challenges the dominant German-based Pole Dariusz Michalczewski for the World Boxing Organisation light-heavyweight title. Prince, a heavy hitter, is unbeaten in 18 fights but is likely to come up short against Michalczewski, who should extend his 37-fight winning run by the halfway stage in their scheduled 12-rounder.
Wayne McCullough, the former world champion, has split from his long- time coach Thel Torrance six weeks before his scheduled fight with Prince Naseem Hamed, the World Boxing Organisation featherweight title holder. Kenny Croom, who has been on his coaching team, will take over as his trainer.
