As you might expect, Glass Joe is the weakest opponent in the game. He's an older boxer who never had any success and doesn't know when to quit (he won only one of 100 fights). Only the most disoriented (or bored) player could lose to him. If you hit him with any uppercut it will put him down instantly. | As you might expect, Glass Joe is the weakest opponent in the game.

Glass Joe's opening pattern is simple: he will guard his face or body, and if you hit where he is not guarding three times, he will switch his guard. He will attempt to throw jabs and the occasional hook if you let him, but keep pounding and he won't get half a chance. If he blocks a high shot, switch to low, and vice versa. Keep the pressure on and he'll crack under it. | Glass Joe's opening pattern is simple: he will guard his face or body, and if you hit where he is not guarding three times, he will switch his guard.

Piston Honda is the last match of the Minor Circuit. He was originally Piston Hurricane in the Arcade Game and he has a similar special punch.

Honda is also very easy to counter-punch - hit him anywhere when he wiggles his eyebrows and in the face when he pulls one hand back, and you can get stars. | Honda is also very easy to counter-punch - hit him anywhere when he wiggles his eyebrows and in the face when he pulls one hand back, and you can get stars. | ||

He will attempt to throw jabs and the occasional hook if you let him, but keep pounding and he won't get half a chance. If he blocks a high shot, switch to low, and vice versa.
