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.

The Logan Paul vs KSI fight is finally available to watch for free on YouTube.

Fans had been charged $10 to watch the boxing match live through YouTube, with the hopes that it would become the internet event in the history.

In the end, it was a huge viewing event. But relatively few people actually paid for their streams: many more watched it through other, live and pirated, streams, such as those available on Twitch.

Now people who didn't catch either of those streams, or who want to watch the fight again, can finally do so for free.

The boxing match was uploaded to the special KSIvsLogan channel, where it is available in full and HD, entirely for free.

YouTube also uploaded the fight between the two vloggers' younger brothers, Deji and Jake Paul, who took each other on before the main event. That is also available entirely for free.

KSI and Logan Paul have committed to a rematch in the new year, after their fight in Manchester was declared a draw. It is not clear when or where that will happen, though KSI has suggested he is aiming for summer and a location on the East Coast.
