    As we all know there are many a good boxers around at present plying their trade. The obvious stand-outs are the 'olympians' James DeGale in particular, but I reckon Frankie Gavin has had a slower start and can show alot more of his talent come 2011 if he is given the right productive fights.

    I ponder about the heavyweight talent of David Price and Tyson Fury, it is common knowldege that there is a a dirth of talent at present in the heavyweight divison and if these guys step up their games, they can make a real impression and advance quickly.

    Thoughts and thanks in advance for all replies.

    i'm hoping one of the superbantamweight prospects makes a big step up in 2011. Quigg or Frampton.

    Also as you say, Frankie Gavin.

    i was thinking of those when i was making the thread, 2 cracking boxers who both have a good future ahead of them. For me Quigg will go further and will make a bigger impact next year. What you reckon

    I always used to think quigg was ahead of frampton, but i was really impressed by carl's performance against gavin reid and think he is more likely to reach and do well on the world stage.

    I don't know how quickly mcguigan will want to push frampton though. he should be ready for at least a british title shot.

    All the usual suspects will come on well over the next 12 months, but with a bit of work I would put Tony Bellew in the mix, he has potential to do well in the division if he works on his awful defence!

    For me tony has to step up to cruiser, he looks very drained at the weight at lhw. He has looked god awful in his last 2 fights and been dropped 3 times for good measure. To his credit he overcame both challenges and will have learned alot, but for me he has no business at lhw. He should move up to cruiser and ply his trade. I think he will be quite a force at the weight and it'll be a hell of a lot easier to conquer that division over lhw anyway.

    Agreed, he is a good fighter with a good future. would have been interesting to see how he would of faired at 2012 games.

    Shame he isnt getting the screen time as you say cos from what i have heard he is a very good talent.

    degale will win the european title by the end of next year or even in his next fight! quigg will become british champion and i think frampton will look to get himself into mandatory position fro the ebu title. frankie gavin could win the lonsdale outright next year if he gets his chance at the british title.

    Degale by far.

    He'll be going against the best in the world come early 2012.

    Degale v Dirrell might be an interesting fight.

    Gavin will probably just have faced Daws come the end of 2011.

    i think frampton will beat quigg and go on to do special things, hopefully joe murrey will break through for some big domestic fights this year as well

    As people has already mentioned I really like the look of Frampton, he looks like he will be something just a little bit special.

    Obviously Degale. After 9 fights he looks spectacular and hasn't even looked like losing a round yet. By the end of the year, a world title shot will be on his grasp without a doubt.

    And I agree with those who said Gavin, cracking little boxer who is doing everything right.

    Also, im really interested to see what BJ Saunders does this year. Hopefully he stays injury free and find a comfortable weight.

    Im going to say Joe Selkirk to win the commonwealth strap this year and to be looking at a British title shot at some point towards the end of the year

    No just thought id throw a name into the mix that will make an impression so yer i was completely ignoring your original question

    Break through im going to say Gavin will probably have a big year next year. Had a few poor opponents and pull outs i expect him to capture the British and look impressive against all domestic opposition and by the end of the year hold lonsdale outright and be looking at frnge world level
