Mike Tyson's Body head "Uppercut Finisher"
gives him the crown here IMO for single best Uppercut.
But Overall, my fav Uppercut has to be Sal Sanchez
he had a dual Right/Left uppercut's on the inside that together with
a calculated body attack would break his opponents down.

1) Mike Tyson
2) George Foreman
3) IT DOESN'T MATTER AFTER #1 AND #2

I think that Tyson and Liston compete for the best uppercut in real terms, but Lewis also has a wonderful uppercut which he can use off the back foot (see round one, Lewis-Tyson).
Foreman is being hugely overated in this thread. His uppecut is slow, thrown from too far back, and a bit looping. Liston and Tyson blow him away in terms of form, and are not behind him in terms of power.

1. tyson. (his uppercut on marvis frazier is simply awesome)

Joe Frazier would probably disagree

Joe Frazier would probably disagree
Actually, Joe tended to underate everyone who beat him, so I doubt it.

Robinson had the best right uppercut I've ever seen. Robinson would throw the right uppercut off the jab very precise and fast.

Tyson on Ratliff (i think)
lifted him 2 feet off the groundim more impressed when he lifted bruno off the ground... bruno was a big biog man almost 250 pounds of muscle bone and sinew pulled form the ground by a 5'11 powerhouse
