:: Yes, this is the one challenge you have to ''lose'' to achieve. The trick is that you can't do all three knockdowns in the same round or that results in a TKO win for you. Spread them out between the rounds, and remember not to knock him down for a fourth time or that results in guaranteed KO. To lose by decision, you need to make sure Glass Joe gets three knockdowns on you as well, then make sure you end the fight with less health than him. Then the decision will fall Joe's way. | |||

::The basic idea is to soften him at the start of the round, use the one-punch knockdown, then counter all his punches after he gets up. As you counter punches, you'll earn Stars you can uncork to drain Joe's health and keep sending him to the canvas. Note that it's okay to take a hit or two as long as you keep piling on the punches. Just complete the KO/TKO without once resorting to defense and you'll complete the challenge. | |||

Revision as of 10:50, 23 October 2012
- Record: 1-99 (1 KO)
- Height: 5'10"
- Weight: 110 lbs
- Age: 38
- Birthplace: Paris, France
- Description: A scrawny little French guy in the bottom of the minor leagues of the WVBA.
- Difficulty:
- KO Count: 4
- Attacks:
- Sucker Punch: Joe cowardly moves back then punches at the face. A standard attack that can be dodged and blocked.
- Upper Hook: Joe crouches and launches an uppercut. More predictable than the Sucker Punch, but cannot be blocked or ducked.
He's easy for the beginners. He'll start off with a taunt. Usually taunts glow yellow so they can give stars for the all-powerful Star Punch, so punch wherever is punchable. Punch his head to get a star. Glass Joe has only one part of his body blocked, so when his gloves are at his body, punch the head and when the gloves are at the head, punch the body. Otherwise, just dodge then attack. Glass Joe has a One-Hit Knock-Out spot. He'll step back and cheer for France and then step back into position. The time to hit him is when he steps back in his the spot, so be ready to time your attack.
- Star Opportunities
- Joe will usually start by posing with his arm behind his back. Hit him when he flashes gold (any time the opponent flashes gold is a great chance to earn a star with the right punch).
- Counter one of Joe's easily-telegraphed punches: in other words, connect with one of your punches before his blow hits you. If he's about to jab you, jab him first. If he tries the hook, hit a hook of your own.
- Knockdown Opportunities
- Joe will occasionally step back and taunt in French. Time a punch to connect just as he's stepping back towards you.
- Achieving this with a Three-Star Punch will result in One-Hit KO.
- Challenges
- Knock down Glass Joe 3 times, then let him win by decision.
