Froch over Bute. Bute was the big undefeated hype at 68 and Froch coming off a blowout loss where he looked like a fighter on the downslide. Froch beat the brakes off him.

I think the most impressive performance was cotto. I didnt expect him to beat mayweather, but it was a much more entertaining fight than i would have expected. I voted for Froch because he did knock out an undefeated fighter spectacularly. As far as salido and lopez goes, styles make fights,and i expected salido to find a way to win again because his first victory wasn't luck.
Lopez vs Ortiz is a close runner up because Lopez came in and broke the jaw of a much bigger fighter. |

I'm ASSuming you are saying "Best Win" not in terms of performance but rather in terms of significance, right???
I can't believe it's not there and whether you agree with it or not Bradley over Pac is the best win for 2012!! I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the following lose this year: Khan, the biggest CON in the game and Bute (highly overrated), although a non-significant player in the sport I savored the flavor of Camacho Jr taking a dirtnap on the canvas. Biggest upset=Lopez over Ortiz Anyone with any good boxing judgement expect Salido to repeat his dominance over Lopez. Floyd beating Cotto was a great victory because Miguel is back on track after his dominance over MargoCHEATo who Cotto happily placed into retirement. Dawson didn't impress me with his win over BHop and I'm praying that Ward puts him to sleep. |

I voted for Salido's nasty KO victory over Lopez in the rematch. I I chose this fight, because it ended in a more convincing fashion that it did the first time. Not only that, but Salido went back to Juanma's hometown, and beat him worse than he did the first time.
Since Arum promotes both of them, Im sure Salido ended up taking the smaller split of the purse, though he was the new champ (dont quote me on the purse situation). Let's not forget that Salido was about to get robbed in that fight as well, according to the scorecards at the time of the stoppage. With all of this said, Salido solidified himself as the champ, and beat all odds. |

Yes, I did because of the significance of it. Pac was basically the #2 P4P fighter and Bradley put a huge damper on the meaning of the Floyd vs Manny fight, most people are thoroughly convinced that Floyd blows Pac away after this and the previous lackluster showingsvs JMM. I'm not one of those people, I still think it is a big fight but one that is covered in a dark cloud. Cotto vs Mayweather should've been an example to show people that you can never count a fighter out. |
