Hroom, this is a very interesting question...

I think that it very likely would have beem Frodo. After all, he was carrying the Ring, and had the most contact with it. It was his burden, appointed to him. And we all see, that by the end of the book, at the Cracks of Doom, he succumbs. So, in a sense, he really is the next after Boromir to give in.
