Anthony Ogogo is ready to kick-start Great Britain's attempts to dominate the boxing competition at London 2012.

Anthony Ogogo will be the the first member of Great Britain's highly rated boxing squad to compete at London 2012.

Ogogo is set to take on Junior Castillo from the Dominican Republic in the first round of the men's 75kg middleweight tournament, fighting at around 3pm on Saturday at the Excel Arena.

Ogogo will lead the way for a boxing squad that, while hugely talented, is under immense pressure to deliver a strong medal haul.

The British middleweight was the last member of Team GB to qualify for the Games and is looking to emulate James DeGale, who claimed gold in this weight class in Beijing four years ago.
