    For me, Gamboa-Solis, Donaire-Sidorenko, and Donaire-Montiel have been the most impressive showings so far. Which performance have impressed you so far?

    Chisora, totally unexpected performance, will be interesting to see what he can do in 2012. Though he needs to get more power behind the punches, considering the beating he gave Helenius he should be able to knock em out.

    JMM by a country mile. I was expecting him to lose via TKO.

    People can call Pacquiao's performance unimpressive if it makes them feel better, but JMM got the tactics spot on.

    JMM clearly. To put on a masterclass when least expected, overcoming huge disadvantages and not getting dropped en route to a sweet science masterpiece is simply an all-time great showing.

    Arce v Vazquez-Wilfredo was seen as a 10 to 1 favourite though the tough lil Mexican ground him down in my fight of the year.

    Wlad vs. Haye is being overlooked. Not the most impressive performance of 2011 but surely worth a post.
