Does WLAD have an uppercut?

[rizkybizness]

Not spamming? Then what do you call;

I've never seen the robot throw an uppercut. They should reprogram his software.

Might as well throw in a pair of balls while they're at it.

The uppercut could be very effective against Povetkin. Wladimir has thrown a few here and there but not nearly as many as he did for example against Ray Mercer.

Lewis was cautious but he still managed to have a great uppercut.




Lennox Lewis

Lewis probably had one of the best uppercuts of any heavyweight I've ever seen.

Better than Tyson?

No need to call him a robot and tell him to grow a pair of balls.

What do you mean, grow a pair of balls? He is fighting in a not so strong heavyweight era, agreed - BUT, he fights the BEST the division has to offer. Every top name they bring, he fights them. He is about to fight Povetkin soon, which will be a very good fight. He is not fighting Tye Fields, he is fighting the top names in the Heavyweight division.

If you're talking about his style, nobody is gonna rush head first into a brawl like a ****ing Margarito type of guy. Wlad likes to jab from the outside, pick his shots and throw some heavy right hands, occasionally some left hooks. There is nothing wrong with that, at all. And if you think there is, stop watching his fights.

I think Lewis had a bit more variation with the uppercut, he could use it from the inside as well as the outside but that was mainly because of his reach whereas Tyson had short arms so he could only throw it effectively from the inside, they both had brutal uppercuts though.

I think Lewis' uppercut was better that Tysons. Lewis' uppercut was quick and came out of nowhere.

Fair enough.

Agreed. I think his uppercut was especially dangerous on the inside.

Tyson himself would come out of no where.

Fair enough.

I think I've made my point on this thread. Go back and read it. If anyone wants to actually talk about the tactics that occur inside of a boxing ring get back to me.

Tyson had a better uppercut than Lewis. But again that punch is designed for taller outside fighters. So it suited Lewis better.

Not a huge deal.
