Nonito Donaire takes on Jorge Arce this Saturday in Houston.

This is it. The final game-sheet for 2012. We wish the bouts looked a little more competitive to close the season, but at least it's a busy weekend - so good luck to everyone with your final picks, and thanks for participating this year!

Topping the bill is an HBO double-header featuring super-bantamweight Nonito Donaire (#1) and Guillermo Rigondeaux (#3). In the main-event, the Filipino southpaw takes on Jorge Arce, while the Cuban goes up against Poonsawat Kratingdaenggym on the undercard.

On Showtime, Amir Khan (#6) returns to action for the first time since losing to Danny Garcia, with the British junior-welterweight taking on Carlos Molina. Also on the line-up is a bout from the Showtime Extreme portion of the card, with Shawn Parter taking on Julio Diaz.

Undefeated British super-middleweight George Groves (#9) takes on Glen Johnson in London.

Having been out of the ring for almost 17 months, Jean Pascal is back, with the Canadian light-heavyweight taking on Aleksy Kuziemski in Montreal.

And rounding out the line-up, is the British light-middleweight title match-up between Brian Rose and Sam Webb.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).
