    I have spoken to a fair share of them and I don’t remember ever hearing that terminology so I was curious.

    It's what Razor Ruddock did. Power for the uppercut comes from the legs and dipping a little for more leverage.

    You can use just the upper torso, but you get even more power from the spring in your legs.

    Alex Leapai laying out COLD 317-lbs giant russian Orlov with a single right uppercut was pretty impressive

    Jesus. What a punch. He was already pretty badly hurt but nonetheless that right uppercut would also cause major issues even with a fresh fighter.

    Yes, Leapai's right uppercut was no joke. Here is another one, against Okhello Peter who went the distance against Maskaev in his lone title defense

    Yes, that was such as damaging uppercut. Joe kept getting up, what a heart. I think he would have kept getting up at his own peril if they hadn’t stopped it. Not that it would have made a difference but I had a huge problem with Mercante allowing George pushing Joe off for punching room. Joe’s only shot was on the inside.
