After a long fight, Danny Baker has become Britain’s first transgender boxer to glove-up for a men’s semi-professional bout.
The 34-year-old was born female but transitioned in his 20s and has had to battle to compete in the sport he loves amid the controversy surrounding trans sportspeople.
Danny, of Enfield, north London, said: “When I’m boxing, I feel like the man I am. I feel included by the boxing community. My testosterone levels are kept within the natural human amount. When it comes to sport, I don’t have an advantage.
