    None of them have lost yet, but I would not be shock if BJ Saunders or David Price were to come unstuck this season.

    Pricey wont come unstuck unless he is thrown into a big fight with little preparation. I honestly think Pricey has the most potential from all of our HWs, he needs better opposition though. He's not going to learn anything from importing kitchen fitters to be bowled over in one round.

    I cant see any of them failing in their next fights (where already named).

    yeh where is Jeffiries.

    Its a tough question becuase i see DeGale, Murray and Gavin as the better fighters, but they will step it up sooner.

    Think BJS will be the first, not sure he has the dedication required and may slip up if he stepped up to English title level too soon.

    Price will not be put in with anyone too dangerous anytime soon and Jeffries will be given an easy time after the Banbula fight.

    Gavin will only lose within the next 2 years on cuts and Degale wont lost until Groves beats him.

    He's already taken out of the equation, from his last fight. Fair enough, he was given the draw, but he's out of the picture now.

    Like **** he is. Robin Reid won a bronze at the Olympics and he had a draw in his 6th fight. He went on to win a 'world' title. Maurice Hope went to the Olympics and lost his 5th fight. He went on to be a 'world' champion. Alan Minter, a bronze medallist, lost a fight early and became world champion etc. etc.

    Would you have 'taken them out of the equation' as well because they had a blemish on their records?

    Shouldn't the question be 'Who will be the first Olympian to lose'?
