Even Ariel Helwani questioned Ali on the result when he interviewed her in the ring afterwards. 'I thought I won,' Ali said. 'I thought the drop in the second round should have been scored as a knockdown. I knew from then, yeah it got really messy, but I knew I was edging it because of the knockdown. 'Everyone has their opinions and not shying away from it, I do believe I won the fight.'

This hard-to-find war movie classic is streaming on YouTube
The streaming era has made untold thousands of movies available at our fingertips. The problem? The vast majority of those movies were made in only the last two decades or so. If you're a burgeoning cinephile looking to continue your film education, finding films from earlier than the Clinton administration is more difficult than it should be. But it's not impossible: you just need to know where to look. A good place to start? YouTube. The site best known for cat videos, conspiracy theories and DIY home repair tutorials is a semi-secret repository for movies unavailable on other platforms. Many classics of the cult, arthouse and international variety are out there to stream, completely for free. Of course, the drawbacks are dodgy transfers and possible copyright violations. But if you want to watch one of the greatest anti-war films of all-time, well, it's there, it's in 1080p, and it's legal. Be forewarned, though: 1985's Come and See will leave you absolutely shell-shocked. Set in Nazi-occupied Belarus, the final film by Soviet director Elem Klimov follows a young soldier named Florya as he witnesses horrors beyond his comprehension. Time Out – which has not only named the movie one of the best war movies of all-time but one of the greatest overall – put it this way: 'As unsparing as cinema gets, the influence of Elem Klimov's sui generis war movie transcends the genre in a way that not even Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan can match. At its heart it's a coming-of-age story that follows a young Belarusian boy (Aleksei Kravchenko) through unspeakable horror as Nazi death squads visit an apocalypse on his region. Alongside its historical truths, the film's grammar and visual language – there are passages that play like an ultra-violent acid trip – are what truly elevates it. Like an Hieronymus Bosch masterpiece, the images here can never be unseen.' Currently, Come and See is not free to stream anywhere else in the US. It's on YouTube thanks to Mosfilm, the century-old Russian studio that has produced many of the country's most renowned films. Beginning in 2011, the studio began uploading a trove of Russian films to its YouTube channel, in high-def and with English subtitles. In addition to Come and See, the page channel has nearly full filmographies from legendary directors like Sergei Eisenstein and Andrei Tarkovsky – so you'll have a lot more to dig into, once you're done being traumatised.

The trendy London neighbourhood with world-famous new museum and cool hotels
STRATFORD is having a moment thanks to some exciting new museums and attractions. Put on the map following the creation of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in 2012, the East London neighbourhood is slowly becoming a trendy spot to go to. 3 3 3 So much so, it was named the coolest place to visit in London by Time Out earlier this year. And that's been backed further by the opening of the much anticipated V&A East Storehouse ( at the end of May. It is certainly expansive – spread across four floors, taking up the space of 30 basketball courts. Free to visit, after putting my handbag into one of the many lockers (big bags and bulky coats along with food and drink aren't allowed inside) I was ready to explore. The museum's collection is broken down into three 'themes' – items that have a story, items inspired by the V&A and items that show a working museum. An element I loved was the lack of walls so you can see everything while standing in one spot – almost reminding me of an IKEA warehouse. But the variation of items (of which there are 250,000) means there is something for everyone. Kids will be fascinated by the sword displays, while I loved the items from important protests throughout history. Architecture lovers will be taken by the famous Frank Lloyd Wright rooms and there is enough art and memorabilia to keep all types occupied, from motorbikes and guitars to magazines and interiors. Yet, it's a museum made for the modern day – every piece has a QR code to scan for more information rather than huge signs of text. Take a look inside London's Hotel 41 Later this year it will open the David Bowie Centre, an archive dedicated to the six decades of the late singer's career. And next spring will see the opening of V&A East Museum, a 7,000sqm attraction space with live shows and pop-ups. But that's not the only new boost of culture at Stratford. Following the success of Sadler's Wells Theatre in Islington, the new Sadler's Wells East ( has also opened just around the corner from the new V&A. Huge bowls of pasta With live dance shows, from flamenco to hip hop, I was left in awe watching Find Your Eyes – a show created by photographer Benji Reid who used dance alongside his live photography on stage. With my battery running low, I needed some downtime and thankfully just around the corner was the stylish Gantry Hotel. It's a great evening destination, where you'll spot everyone from laptop types in the lobby to after-work drinkers on the terrace. The day-lounge-turned-evening-restaurant Union Social kept me well fed with huge bowls of pasta followed by a glass of wine from the retro Coupe bar.
