    Forgot to mention Hamed along the best southpaw uppercutters. But yeah, Marvin Johnson belongs too.

    Hamed would LEAD with the uppercut too.

    Saad definitely had one of all time great left uppercuts. Should have mentioned him.

    Kessler had a pretty good right uppercut. He hurt Calzaghe with it briefly.

    He threw nice uppercuts against calz, but it wasnt a punch he used often. His game was all about the jab and the cross

    Gomez threw great uppercuts, with either hand. He had as a full an offensive arsenal as any fighter in history.

    Damn, yeah. Haven't seen this one before. A whole lot of those shots would have taken out many guys sooner.
