The difference between a long range uppercut and a bolo punch?

[OMGWTF]

Anyone know?

Also is a bolo as powerful as an uppercut?

The bolo punch is the one your boyfriend uses to unleash his fist into your ass..

The 'grandmaster' of the bolo was Kid gavilan; before him there was ceferino Garcia, and, I'm sure, many others. ray Leonard once claimed to have invented the punch- I'm certain he was high on some drug or the other to say something so ridiculous.
The uppercut, thrown properly, is a pretty precise and disciplined punch. You throw it as a counter and from in close, to either the head or the body. Throwing it from long range is a good way to get knocked out- see Holyfield vs Douglas, among others.
There is at least as much hook as uppercut in a bolo- kind of like the left hook most fighters throw to the body.
Watch Carlos Zarate fight- he uses, almost incessantly, a left uppercut to the body. Which might seem odd for a guy that tall but it is his go-to punch. He uses it all the time.
