Assume the on guard boxing position: hands up, chin down, eyes on your opponent. To throw the uppercut, bend both legs and place your weight on the right or rear side of your body. Don't drop your fist to throw the uppercut, throw the punch right from your chin. The key is to squat and drop your butt, not your fists. This is a short punch. As you deliver the punch drive upward with your legs. The real power comes from your legs and your butt, not as much from the arm.
