Weaknesses: His jaw is considered to be frail and His special technique can easily be countered and knock him down in one hit. | Same as before plus, with a strong enough punch to the bottom of the headgear, it will temporarily leave his face vulnerable.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Left Jab: An easily telegraphed attack, he will take a step back, preparing to attack, and jab Mac. Very easy to evade, since it can be blocked, dodged to any side and ducked. Counter it with a normal punch for a Star, but the timing is slightly strict. At full stamina, it roughly takes ten left jabs to knock Mac down.

• Right Uppercut: Also telegraphed, he will grunt, preparing to attack, and strike with a right uppercut. Slightly harder, though still easy to evade: it can be dodged, but cannot be blocked or ducked. Counter it with a left hook for a Star, but the timing is also slightly strict. At full stamina, it roughly takes ten right uppercuts to knock Mac down.

• Taunt: He will do a taunt by lowering his arm, raising his chin, and laughing at Mac. He always does at the start of a round, and often between matches. Hit him when he flashes yellow for a star.

• Vive La France Taunt Punch: Glass Joe's signature move. He will go to the back of the mat, do a long taunt while saying, "Eh, eh? Vive la France!", go back to the middle of the mat, and do a right uppercut. Hit him with either a normal punch, a Star Punch or a Two-Star Punch to knock him down in one hit. Hitting him with a Three-Star Punch will OHKO him. He will start attacking after this taunt.
