    Right now I'm in the mood to start checking out the best fights of this year, before 2012 arrives. This year has been stacked with some great fights. So far the best fights so far we've were:

    Brandon Rios vs Miguel Acosta
    Brandon Rios vs Urbano Antillon
    Hernan Marquez vs Luis Concepcion I
    Jorge Arce vs Wilfredo Vazquez Jr.
    Erik Morales vs Marcos Maidana
    Pawel Wolak vs Delvin Rodriguez I
    Makoto Fuchigami vs. Koji Sato
    Akira Yaegashi vs. Pornsawan Porpramook

    Some honorable mentions:

    James Kirkland vs Alfredo Angulo
    Amir Khan vs Lamont Peterson
    Victor Ortiz vs Andre Berto
    Jorge Linares vs Antonio DeMarco
    Abner Mares vs Joseph Agbecko I and II
    Juan Manuel Lopez vs Orlando Salido

    Which fights of 2011 do you like the best?

    Concepcion vs. Marquez is the best I've seen this year; and it's been a good year.

    My #2 would be Rios vs. Acosta due to it's dramatic ending. Ortiz vs. Berto started off great, but the last 4 rounds are so were anti-climatic. Just a personal preference.

    there were so many, cotto-margarito, berto-ortiz. one that standed out for me was Akira Yaegashi vs. Pornsawan Porpramook. the fight in the beginning was one sided as Yaegashi used intelligent in and out boxing. then, from like round 6 and on, it became a slugfest. amazing.
