Jack Johnson's uppercut over Foreman, Tyson, and Lewis? Crazy thinking. I think every single fighters would rather be hit by Johnson's uppercut in comparison to the three names I listed.
Jack Johnson's uppercut over Foreman, Tyson, and Lewis? Crazy thinking. I think every single fighters would rather be hit by Johnson's uppercut in comparison to the three names I listed. - Mendoza I'd have to see the context of the question. If you asked Futch who had the harder uppercut, he would not have said Johnson. Futch was there to see Foreman's uppercut pick Frazier's the canvas. Futch like many trainers was biased on this topic. Futch himself said Frazier was the best he handed! Hahaha. I know you don't agree with him here, so why agree with him on the uppercut comment. Futch worked with: Paul Andrews Alexis Arguello Trevor Berbick Maurice Blocker Duane Bobick Rid**** Bowe Marvin Camel Bruce Curry Lester Felton Patrick Ford Bob Foster Joe Frazier Antonio Gomez Montell Griffin Shane Sutcliffe-club fighter Leroy Haley Virgil Hill Larry Holmes Eddie Jones Don Jordan Hedgemon Lewis Tony Licata Mike McCallum Wayne McCullough Willie Monroe Walter Moore Ken Norton Cubanito Perez Mando Ramos Freddie Roach James Shuler Ernie Singletary Michael Spinks Marlon Starling Alex Stewart Johnny Tapia Roscoe Toles
A long irrelevant list that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic. Foreman lands one uppercut of note, Marciano too.Louis was adept at the punch and like Johnson, could throw it from either hand, he destroyed Godoy with it. Futch also said the three best heavyweights of all time , in his opinion were, in no order: Ali ,Johnson ,Louis. Anyone who knows boxing acknowledges Johnson had a superb uppercut which he could deliver from either hand. I would put Holmes next , where you place anyone is of no interest to me whatsoever.
Foreman, Tyson, Bowe. Morrison wasn't too shabby, Louis, Holmes. Foreman had the most power, Tyson and Bowe had better form and were very effective.
Foreman and rocky could and did throw great uppercuts with both hands. the rest of the guys are pretty much right hand only. Changes a lot of things only having to worry about 1 thing--imagine Tyson if he had the ability to throw a left uppercut. Or Joe Louis.
Tyson wouldn't even be on this idiots list,foxy probably didn't even know Tyson used uppercuts. :lol99
I'd say Foreman had the hardest uppercut, the way he took Frazier apart was something else. Still can't believe Shavers or Holyfield aren't on some peoples list also.
