Kellie Maloney - Boxing Promoter

Stephen Sackur speaks to Kellie Maloney, the boxing promoter who recently underwent gender confirmation surgery and was previously known as Frank Maloney.

Professional boxing is full of macho testosterone-fuelled posturing. It's hard to imagine a more challenging environment in which to be a woman trapped in a man's body. Stephen Sackur speaks to Kellie Maloney, who felt like that for many years. Until recent gender confirmation surgery, she was known as Frank Maloney, boxing promoter and twice-married father of three. Now that Frank has a very public new life as Kellie, how much has changed?
