Correct form for throwing uppercuts.

[yvonne]

Alright they mate!You've took your time finding your uppercut,i mean were has it been for all these years..."Just kidding!"ha.I understand that you want to deploy and throw the uppercut as affectively as possible"Causing as much damage as possible".Im assuming your an orthodox(right hand fighter)boxer?!Anyway if your a southpaw then just work off the opposite side of these instructions.I'll start off with mentioning that when learning to throw the uppercut it would be a great advantage to have a boxer coach or trainer watching you fairly close as you unload!If theirs not one at present then it could be a good idea throwing the uppercut in front of the mirror from differant angles,that way you can see for yourself were your punches come from as well as land.To throw the uppercut you'll have to be really close to your opponant,"That obvious",i know(about a foot to a foot and a half),but try and get your leading foot"Left foot if your a ORTHODOX fighter!"in between your opponants legs,especially if he is a orthodox fighter too,so that your right hand side foot is as far away from his countering right haymaker or hook!!Just make sure that when you manage to get in on the inside to throw the uppercut,you bend the right knee slightly and throw the uppercut from the bottom of your right foot sole(right from the bottom of your feet)and continue the frust through the top of your shoulder and through to the fist until you connect.Your target should be,to punch beyond the main target(CHIN)of your opponant.What i mean is,that just before you throw the punch to the chin,imagine his chin to be a EGG for instance..."Try not just break the shell of the EGG,but also smash throw to the YOKE(The inside)too"i hope that makes sense mate.Try to odopt a non-obivious appoach to land that great punch too!
