Rear uppercut
Take this slowly, stay balanced, and ask your coach when something feels unclear.
number
6
stance note
Thrown with the rear hand, the “six”. The heavier of the two uppercuts.
weight transfer
A dip and drive through the back leg, with the hip rotating forward as the punch travels up.
hand path
Elbow close to the ribs, palm toward you, travelling up the centre. Short and compact.
chin and guard
The lead hand stays at the cheek, and the chin stays tucked — this is a punch thrown at close range.
common mistake
Leaning back to make room, which takes your base out from under the punch.
one cue
Short travel, legs underneath it.
