It's either Mayweather, Rigondeaux, Bradley, or Garcia.
Rigondeaux beating Donaire was the best win of the year IMO, he utterly out classed a Top 5 P4P fighter. And had he beaten even a decent 122 fighter in his 2nd fight, it'd be a slam dunk for Rigondeaux. But he needed a fight, and ended up fighting Agbeko, who is nowhere near the Top 10 at 122 and has been IRRELEVANT since 2011 against Mares.
The 2nd best win for me was Bradley beating Top 5 P4P Marquez handily and clearly. That was a huge win, especially with JMM coming off stopping Pacquiao. But, just prior to that fight, he struggled in a fight that could have gone either way with 140 Provonikov. He still won, but he arguably could have lost that fight on the cards with being knocked down and all.
Garcia beating Lucas was huge as well. He proved without a doubt and 100% that he is the best 140 fighter in the world. So many picked Lucas to brutalize him and KO him within 5-6 rounds, and he clearly defeated him, no controversy IMO, no matter how many Lucas stans wanna b*tch and moan about "the cut was lucky, the KD was suspect"....Garcia won and clearly. He added another decent win against Judah, but decent at very best. Judah looked basically done against Paulie the other night, and he pushed Garcia to the brink late in the fight. So Garcia still clearly won, but he was pushed by Judah and didn't completely dominate.
Next is Mayweather. He got a very good win over Canelo, where he won the lineal title at JMW as well. This is THE FIGHT people wanted him to take in September, so no b*tching about this one. And he not only won, but Canelo won maybe 1-2 rounds. Then he also had another solid win over Top 5 WW in Guerrero, another young and prime fighter, where he also only lost like 1-2 rounds max.
So it's definitely one of these guys for me.
