    I love the uppercut more than any punch, its the wickedest, most fatal and most beautiful of all the punches when timed perfectly. Who do you think is the Sultan of the Uppercut?:hey

    My vote goes to Rafa. He delivers it with grace and fluidity.

    Yep. The Marquez bros. are sultans-par-excellance with the uppercut. Credit must go to Maestro Nacho, he trained both.

    Rafa's more superior and powerful though...

    Best uppercut is probably Chad Dawson's right uppercut from the southpaw stance.

    Zab's uppercut is deadly too.

    yea, he's southpaw too. He staggered Cotto with that one, prompting the latter to retaliate by busting his ballz, lol. Mike Tyson has got to be the Uppercut Sultan in his time.

    This is a punch that a lot of fighters today could really use. Tyson's uppercut was monsterous.

    Although it's a bit under rated and he's more known for the straight right, Kelly Pavlik has a good uppercut as well.

    Juan Manuel Marquez - He can deliver it with power, speed, accuracy, and deadly precision from outside or when he's on the inside. And with both hands too.
