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.

Audley Harrison's next fight will be against the former Australian heavyweight champion Colin Wilson in Sydney.

Harrison will return to Australia, where he won gold in the Olympics three years ago, on 6 August and fight at the Sydney Entertainment Center. Wilson, 31, will be his first southpaw opponent. At 6ft 5in, he is the same height as Harrison.

In a 10-year career, Wilson's record stands at 24 wins and 16 defeats, with 14 knock-outs, while Harrison has won all 12 of his fights since turning professional after the 2000 Olympics. The fight will be contested over eight rounds.
