Juan Manuel Marquez threw some really nice uppercuts.

 

Ward. Kovalev can attest to that.

 

I feel like you did this just to set me up!

I saw the topic and said to myself, nobody is going to think about Larry Holmes but he had a gorgeous and powerful uppercut that you never see get talked about or recognized, I’m going to drop that bomb on them.

And you stole my thunder right off the bat. Touché.

Big George, young or old, had a nasty left uppercut in particular.

Spinks, mentioned above, could do it with either hand.

And of course Tommy “Hurricane” Jackson was the inventor of the double uppercut … throwing uppercuts wit both hands at the same time, which is good for comic relief if nothing else.

Obviously Mike Tyson had a great uppercut

Riddick Bowe had a terrific uppercut. He was so effective fighting on the inside and getting the uppercut in.

Michael Spinks had a hell of an uppercut, as the Marvin Johnson fight showed.

Eusebio Pedroza and Alexis Arguello had excellent uppercuts to the body (and below)

 

Mike Tyson had a great uppercut, with either hand.

 

Tyson easily
Foreman

 

I forgot to mention Duran

 

Jack Johnson had an excellent uppercut in the clinch.

 

Jack Johnson from older fighters.

Tyson and Foreman in particular could throw it from either hand.

Razor Ruddock had a magnificent one.

 

Vernon Forrest’s right uppercut was a thing of beauty. Still remember that uppercut that sent Shane Mosley into the canvas in their first fight.

 

I'm not sure anything looks better than when Tyson would wind up and throw an uppercut with every ounce of everything he had behind it, the way he'd twist his entire body.
