How to Throw Uppercut - The Most Difficult Punch in Boxing

https://www.myboxingcoach.com - The uppercut is a really challenging punch to master. In fact for me, it's the most difficult punch that we teach in boxing. In this video I want to give you some pointers on how to throw the very best uppercut you can throw. There a 6 versions of the uppercut in this video, 3 with each hand with one at each of our key ranges; long, mid and close. As always, there are common faults that you need to avoid. Under-rotation is the real pitfall, as it is with most punches. It's also worth making the shot as direct as possible, avoiding the exaggeration of dropping the hand too low as you start the punch. Finally, make sure that the shot lands with your forearm on the vertical plane. If the forearm isn't vertical then it isn't an uppercut.
