How much has changed for Kellie Maloney following gender reassignment surgery?

Professional boxing is full of macho testosterone-fuelled posturing. It is hard to imagine a more challenging environment in which to be a woman trapped in a man's body. Hardtalk’s Stephen Sackur speaks to Kellie Maloney, who felt like that for many years.
