    A decent uppercut but he'll never match the one true uppercut king

    It's a nice uppercut. Let's be real- he's landed it consistently against top 10 guys. Best Heavy uppercut of this particular era. Coming from a Fury fan, but the Watford hardnut has a nice uppercut

    The one he hit glass-jawed, 41 year old Klitschko with, who has previously been blown over by a slight breeze, and failed to put him down with?

    Or the one he hit Pudding Pulev with about 8 consecutive times and failed to put him down with?

    It's overrated.

    Fury's uppercut is ok but not one that will put a 250 pound man on his ass.

    Furys uppercut is equal to Joshuas. It can hurt you but it'll always be overshadowed by the power of Lennox Lewis

    It’s better than the uppercut fury hit himself with

    The speed and accuracy of Lewis uppercut is scary.

    How about this:
    Lennox Lewis has a great uppercut but he'll never match the one true uppercut king.

    Lewis became even more lethal when he filled out and added bulk.

    Watch AJ Vs Parker if you want to watch a rehearsed robot miss every uppercut in the book.

    It's the best division as shown in the fights Whyte, Wlad and Pulev.

    Who the divison has a uppercut to rival AJ's? Those who have stated its overrated have failed to come up to name another fighter in division who possess a better uppercut.

    Joshua's uppercut is good but not as good as the uppercut Fury hit himself with.

    Equal to Fury's?

    Are you kidding?

    Fury's uppercuts are average at best
