Learn How To Box - The Mid-Range Right Uppercut

http://www.myboxingcoach.com - Learn how to box with the best instructional boxing videos on the Web! Uppercuts are the most technically challenging shots that a boxer uses. They are thrown relatively rarely in comparison to other punches because of the technical difficulty associated with landing the shot and because it carries with it a higher degree of risk than many other shots. By examining and understanding the elements of the mid-range right uppercut shown in this video, you will be able to deploy the uppercut in the correct circumstances and maximise the impact of the shot when it lands.

In the video presentation, I am guilty of leaving the hand on the target for too long (although my reasons are genuine in that I am attempting to emphasise the vertical position of the arm). As with all other punches, get your hand back to the guard position immediately!!!
