Who Did Glass Joe Beat in Punch Out? - Gaming Mysteries

- Glass Joe is famous for being a terrible boxer and the first opponent in Mike Tyson's Punch Out for NES. One of the biggest mysteries around Glass Joe is that despite being an awful boxer, he has one victory on his record. Who could he have possibly beaten?
Although there are a number of theories and even some official stories from Nintendo that tell the story of who was defeated by Glass Joe, these stories are very contradictory and require some analysis to make sense of it.
The Punch Out comic made by Valiant place Little Mac as the person who was defeated by Glass Joe. However, the story in the comics contradicts the story in the game's instruction manual.
Another commonly cited opponent for Glass Joe to have beaten is Nick Bruiser from Super Punch Out. However, Nick Bruiser is shown to be undefeated during Super Punch Out. By analyzing some clues in Super Punch Out, I have devised a theory that explains the contradiction between the story of Glass Joe's win and the Nick Bruiser's spotless record.

If Mike Tyson was a fighter in Punch Out, that means he exists in that universe. Tyson said he lost to Glass Joe. That's where the 1 win came from.
uhhhhh imposter
Wait wasn’t Mike Tyson a dream fight?
This was mostly a joke as well. Some of you guys a little bit too serious. XD He's just making fun of the fact that the actual Mike Tyson lost to Glass Joe.
He took out nick bruiser
That’s actually a good point
Glass Joe beat Cancer.
proud of him
Hwhwhehheheheheh

I personally believe that glass Joe once killed a man in the ring. The trauma of knowing he was the cause of a human persons death, a human person with a family, maybe kids, caused him to purposely do awful in every fight he was in, to make sure it never happens again.
@@croquettiisreadiIt could also be that he is punch drunk and eyes are attempting to show that in Punch Out Wii he gets a head gear during championship mode
Maybe he killed Nick bruiser
I mean, he's old, I think that also affected him
Glass Joe was actually just grinding for the headgear, and accidentally won
Omg, that actually makes sense lmao
If Lil' Mac can, Glass Joe can too bitch
I think you right
Nick Bruiser was tired of fighting glass Joe he just gave up
Glass joe knocked himself out
It was counted as both a win and loss at the same time.
This is now canon. Checkmate atheists.
So,can I knock myself 1000 times so I have 1000 win?
@@Cyrus_got_verified You than have 1000 Wins, but you also lost 1000 times
Luiz Rosario XD
That’s what I said
Glass Joe and Gabby Jay knocked each other out simultaneously and the referee gave them each a point out of sheer pity :)
Crap your right
Yay!
That's some ashita no joe shit.
It counts
Headcanon accepted.

I wanna come to Glass Joe's defense, here. Glass Joe wasn't always a joke. In the original arcade game, he actually _does_ put up a pretty decent fight. Like, he's even tougher than in his Title Defense fight in the Wii game. It's really _surprising!_
If I'm not mistaken, Mike Tyson himself couldn't beat the guy
I mean, it was an arcade machine. That thing was made to steal quarters from your pocket like it's robbing a bank.
@@elecstorm3701that's a really ineffective way to rob a bank
@@ApolloKirl, in the Fantasy World of Punch Out!! (where Cartoon fighters like Great Tiger and Mr. Dream exist), Mike Tyson killed each one of the opponents, except for Mr. Sandman (OP character wtf)
i always thought Glass Joe was the only one who knew King Hippo's secret, and thats where Glass Joe's 1 win and King Hippo's 1 loss came from
That is what I think also
I thought I was the only one to come up with this in my head
Yes
Well... Little Mac ALSO knew King Hippo's weakness, so who really did give Hippo his first loss?
@@fawazdjabakatie1109 Really? Little Mac knew his weakness the first time they fought? I remember Little Mac getting beat down a bunch of times until one of his friends told him how to do it.
I like to think he's getting paid for losing.
He'd be a millionaire
Hes keeping it a secret to avoid paying taxes
How can you be a professional thrower if no one bets on you?
I think he's just to make promising new boxers look good.
@@condor2279 so he is a jobber?
headcanon: Glass Joe's one win was his first fight, but it caused the opponent to either die/get seriously injured. Ever since, Glass Joe has gone easy on all future opponents to prevent the same thing from happening again.
Hall nah little blud using %0.1 of his power
When you look at everything there's a decent explanation. First ask yourself "Why would Glass Joe get the opportunity to fight Bruiser?" The fight was an exhibition set up by a shady advertising firm, but Bruiser had a car accident a few weeks before the fight. Of course the ad agency knew who Glass Joe was and assumed Bruiser would still be fine despite any potential injuries. The ad agency bribes the WVBA doctor to clear Bruiser for the fight despite the accident. *Ding ding* and Bruiser wails on Glass Joe relentlessly for a full 50 seconds before Joe goes down, as the referee is counting though Bruiser's blood is flowing and his adrenaline is pumping and he starts feeling a build up of pressure in his skull .*ding ding* Bruiser hears his cannon and begins his onslaught, but he notices his fists aren't quite keeping up, but no worries, Joe can't catch the rythym and goes down after just a few blows connect. Bruiser walking back to his corner finally realizes the pain he's in, his vision starts to blur and sounds are echoing within his head, despite not being touched Bruiser is getting dizzy and confusion is stealing his skill. As Joe gets up from his second down he notices Bruiser seems tired and distracted*ding ding* Joe sees a tiny opening as Rick stutters on his opening punch and Joe manages to land a solid hook to Rick's temple. Rick screams in pain falling to the ground clutching his head, but he manages to get to his feet before the 10 count, though something is obviously wrong with him.*ding ding* Joe goes on the offensive landing a flurry of body blows, to no effect. Rick getting irritated throws a wild haymaker that Joe barely manages to block, but his hand is broken in the process. The attack throws Rick off balance and leaves him open for another shot to the temple by Glass Joe. Bruiser goes ragdoll and is out for the count. An investigation is launched as drug tests are conducted doctor's perform full body scans on both fighters and the WVBA discovers a breach in protocol the doctor didn't perform any kind of x-ray/ct scan during the pre fight physical on either contestant. The investigation uncovers Rick's car accident and concludes that given the events of the fight it's impossible to 100% prove that Rick's skull injury was a result of the fight or the wreck. The WVBA chairman holds a vote and Bruiser's loss is nearly unanimously thrown out, the one opposition is Bruiser's manager, who says that Bruiser insists that even if his loss is overturned Joe still won the fight and it would be inappropriate to take that win away from him. The WVBA is stunned, afterall Joe also finished the fight with a fairly serious injury and with the doctor's screw up there's no way to know if the injury happened before or during the fight. The decision is made, Joe keeps his victory, but Rick Bruiser is also officially redeclared undefeated
Amazing story.
Just replace Rick with Nick. :)
He may have also had some flukey win. His opponent get injured, falls out of the ring, gets disqualified etc
@@jacksonjacob7791 no, it's stated it's a KO

Imagine a punch out game where you play as Glass Joe, down on his luck after losing time and time again but something ignites him and you play his journey to becoming strong.
I have never wanted something more in my life
Give this mans genius an award
Wouldn't that be an extra hard mode?
Bro, super punch out is about glass joe
Dan Hibiki commenting about Glass Joe? The irony is palpable.
When I was in elementary school my friends and I were talking about this and one kid, and I have no idea how he came up with this, said that the lore was that Glass Joe's opponent had a heart attack and died before ever entering the ring, thus giving Joe the win by default, I believed him for so long because of how confident he sounded when he said it
Ok this is funny as hell 😂😂
Can we appreciate Nick Bruiser's record of 42-0?
No

The name glass joe came from his ability to shatter his opponents bones like glass
I'm thinking of the Simpsons episode where Homer fights Drederick Tatum, and Moe tells homer to picture how he's going to win and homer imagines him winning and the announcer saying "Due to a congenital heart defect, a fatal heart attack has befell Tatum moments before he stepped into the ring."
I like to think that the W.V.B.A covered up nick bruiser's loss, but felt bad for Joe so they didn't remove his win
Or another theory I really like is that glass Joe got that win on bruiser before all of his losses, then Nick beat him so bad that he was barley able to fight again. The W.V.B.A then banned nick bruiser and allowed the severely beaten glass Joe to continue fighting
Glass Joe isn’t shown to have scars in either Mike Tyson’s Punch Out or Punch Out Wii
@@tinodaperson7174His performance in Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! is terrible and very slow
A young Joe, stepping into the ring for the first time in his pro career: an exhibition match with World Heavyweight Champion Nick Bruiser. Joe made the challenge as a drunken joke on a talk show, but Nick Bruiser took the young Frenchman seriously, as he did all other comers. The reedy, inexperienced Joe stood no chance.
Much to his surprise, Nick is far sloppier than one would expect, and Joe manages to down him a couple times, thought takes a beating in return. In the last seconds of the third round, Joe knocks Nick down once more. Each second is an eternity, but Bruiser isn't moving. Then ten count rings out through the arena, the ref steps into the ring and raises the astonished Joe's arm.
Bruiser had suffered a hairline fracture in his skull that had gone unnoticed for years, and somehow Joe managed to split it open. The man's brain hemorrhaged, and he died in the ring, but despite this, the decision held. He had passed his pre-fight exam and Joe had scored better.
The shock of having killed a man, as well as the unexpected status of lineal champion shook Joe to his core. Over and over, he lost, his nerve failing him in every fight. Even his student had a go and downed the poor Frenchman.
Super Punchout was to be released on the 15-year anniversary of Bruiser's unfortunate death, so to commemorate the legend he was included as the final fight, with the flawless record he held before passing.
"It is a happy thing for me," Joe said in an interview. "I hope to face him again here and win on fair terms. It will be some closure."
It’s possible
holy shit this actually emotionally affected me, bravo

We said Glass Joe not Floyd Mayweather.
As a boxing fan, I can attest that when a boxer has like a 1-50 record, his 1 win is often against an opponent who is 0-4. As an example, Andrew Hartley is 2-28, and his wins are against 0-4 Jeff Lee and 0-1 Charlie Zelenoff.
Damn 2-28? That guy must have been paid to lose and build up other fighters. That's crazy. After like 2-10, I would probably just quit 😆
As someone who has been in over 50 fist fights and only won 1. I can tell you your opponent has to be exceptionally bad at fighting for you to get that 1 win.
I dont believe this malarkey.
Charlie Zelenoff is undefeated and even beat deontay wilder
@@bluex610 thats why u haven't made it ... that's what seperates professional athletes from normal people there willing to fail a million times before winning
@@lanceknightmare your experience could easily be flawed what if everybody u fought was just really good at fighting and the one guy u beat was just a little worse

These are the important stories that the main stream media isn't covering.
if he had a boxing academy, he paid somebody to say he lost.
Glass Joe actually just fought a small child going through cancer and won
No, the small child was beating him but he died of cancer before he could throw the last punch, thus glass joe won, despite not hitting the child once
Not not the slam-jamfrancisco I agree
Considering above comment is "Glass Joe beats Cancer.", this gives it a whole different meaning.
It was a pretty uneventful Match , until the Kid wrapped a Crutch around Joes head , and nearly Bit his Ear off , , hellO Iron Mike 😉👍
R/cursedcomments
I've always preferred the narrative that he beat Mr. Sandman in his first fight, which pissed him off so much that he beat Joe senseless in the rematch and caused so much damage that became a shadow of what he was, thus starting his perpetual losing streak
Remember now in the Wii when the doctor gave him a helmet he rose Glass Joe’s arm like he won? Maybe that was the win...
lol
He got the helmet at 100 losses. Mac can get his the same way.
The first victory was Mike Tyson, it was a small nod to the game being “Mike Tyson’s Punch Out” and Mike Tyson saying “I can’t even beat glass Joe”
I think you're on to something although who really cares who that one person this joe fella beat, game is practically 3 decades old already
SilentGaming Tf do you mean he’s the only one that cares? Judging by the views at least 1 million other people care.
But Tyson lost to him playing as Little Mac
I know
@@athanasiosgiogakis ur an idiot everyone who watched this video did didn't they? God.
Glass Joe played Super Punch out the game as a training tool. He got so good at following Nick Bruiser's pattern that he challenged him in reality, and beat him with the knowledge he learned from the game.
This is actually kinda possible. In Mike Tyson's punching, it is correctly shown that, early on (first 90 seconds in game) Tyson is an absolute monster and will pulverize you, but after those 90 seconds, he slows down, and you can hit him. Just like url, where Tyson tends to lose if his opponent can weather the storm.
I meant to say Mike Tyson's Punch Out, not punching
I think its funnier to imagine that nick just tripped 3 times in one round
This is possible but does he have the strength to make him flinch just a little bit at least?
@@Phrogoid you know you can edit a comment right?
I remember seeing somewhere that the only reason Glass Joe beat Nick Bruiser was because of a freak accident in the ring, so I always took it as "Glass Joe can have his 1 'win' but Nick Bruiser never officially lost"
I really want to see this franchise continue. What if we got a game that is a prequel, and stars a Doc Lewis in his prime? It would give us a “new” playable character, and open up the opportunity for a new roster of opponents. Maybe even have an opponent be the father of someone that Little Mac went up against. Kinda like a Mayweather Jr and Sr situation.
You get to the final boss and it's Gabby Jay in his prime... I mean uhhhh dream
Theory: Glass Joe is secretly an almighty god and his first win was when he accidentally destroyed his opponent. So he decided to make himself a weakling so he doesn’t accidentally destroy anyone else.
Perfect argument
Exactly. He fucking evaporated the previous incarnation of Mac.
Theory: Glass Joe accidentally switched up his wins for his losses, which means that to him, his record is 99 wins to 1 loss.
That's why he hasn't retired from Boxing.
Because he wants to continue his so-called "win-streak"
Edit: For all you SNES Punch-Out!! dweebs, here's some Fun Facts.
1.Heike Kagero isn't a girl. They're actually *male*, due to the fact that the Wikipedia for Hieke Kagero states:
*In the SNES version of Super Punch-Out!!, he sometimes swings his long hair against his opponent.*
2. Aran Ryan is a color swap of Piston Hurricane.
3.Pretty obvious, Mad Clown is a clone of Bear Hugger.
And finally, despite being terrible at Boxing, AND having the same record, AND coming from France,
GLASS JOE IS NOT GABBY JAY.
(Stop it, you overly-obsessed mystery solvers.)
Piece o' cake.

@@cavenoises3891 u sus
Nick Bruiser was absolutely dominating that fight, already knocking him down 2 times. Nick Bruiser then performed his leaping attack to try and finish him off. Right when Nick was about to hit him, Glass Joe ducked low, lunged forward, raised his head back up, and wound up hitting his head on Nick’s nuts, resulting in Nick landing awkwardly and leaving him down for the count, and giving Glass Joe the KO.
LOL
Makes sense, since on Nick Bruiser's wiki page, it says that he lost to Glass Joe due to a "freak accident" 😂😂
Romax 24245 late dragon ball reference
Ja I thought the same but a little different Jejeje.
Dick bruiser
One thing I noticed about Glass Joe, if you just start going ham on him and don’t actually land punches, he starts getting way more dangerous (still a wuss though). I literally NEVER saw him throw that hook even once during my first few dozens of plays because he was too busy getting punched in the face.
glass joe was the barrier between those who thought punch-out was another "mash buttons" fighting game and those who came prepared. he is a glass barrier, but still puts up quite something.
Gabby Jay Vs. Glass Jo their fight must have been epic.
Glass Joe defeated Doc Louis, in Docs last professional fight, even though Doc was old and ready to retire, he could have beat Joe, but he was in deep with the bookies, and took a dive to pay off his debts, now he starts all of his fighters off against Glass Joe, and loves to watch him get his ass kicked
Lmao
Matt F or some random dude that only had one boxing match lost to glass joe, and he beat lil mac in a unsanctioned fight which therefore keeps lil mac at 0-0, glass joe at 1-99, and explains why in the comic, the promoter tells lil mac hes not cut out. It explains why lil mac even ran into doc louis. Imagine youre lil mac and you get beat by someone who lost to glass joe
Matt F why does this make sense to me
i thought he beat sand man because a news paper in one of the games says "freak accident mr.sandman beaten?"
Matt F perfect and exactly what I told myself before I read your comment minus the action packed mafia scene you included. Good form.
Gotta give it to Glass Joe: He is the opposite of the French stereotype. He doesn't surrender, but keeps going even after 99 losses.
Edit: I forgot to add this but I really want another Punch Out game. And it needs Glass Joe. Mostly because I missed out on all of the Punch Out games.
Goes down swinging.

Pull off meaning stretch lame content into 10 minutes. I didn't care to watch the entire thing.
WOAH what are you doing here?
I always assumed Glass Joe's 1 win came from a forfeit...the other boxer just couldn't make it to the match. But then I guess that would also have to be true for Gabby Jay.
The only contradiction is in Punchout Wii Joe’s one win is labeled by KO. So one way or another, he has a legitimate win.
To be fair, after he walks back and mocks you, he goes for that swing… and it’s a decent punch
I always assumed Joe's thing is he's a pretty skilled guy he just...can't take a hit for the life of him. I could, realistically, see him with a few wins under his belt.

Wait a minute...
If Glass Joe is this bad, then why does he have his own boxing school? And why would Gabby Jay and anyone else decide to go to it? If anyone wanted to get good at boxing, why would they get taught by someone with 99 losses and 1 win?!
Maybe he’s a better teacher than he is boxer.

I enjoyed this video because you speak clearly and you're not rushing. You recorded part of it with a perfectly kept moustache and part of it where a bit stuck out and that made the cuts interesting.
I’m glad I found this video again, I got curious again since I had recently started playing again.
I'd like to imagine Glass Joe was the most humble boxer in the game, and just boxed for fun... until someone very arrogant got him mad enough to really show his true skill. Thus he kicks this guy's ass, giving him that one win...
The guy he beat...
Doc. He learned from the experience, and went on to train the champion. Doc left boxing, but kept up with the sport in general. By the time Glass Joe fights Little Mac, Joe is already old (relatively old), and so is Doc.
Delaware Mapping Glass Joe in title defense mode can kick some ass, he certainly has potential.
That is actually a really good theory.
Reggie Strickland comes to mind. He had well over 200 losses. However, he was there to give upcoming boxers a few rounds of experience and a W on their record. However, the story goes, that if a "prospect" was a jerk to Reggie before the fight, Reggie would show his true skills and KO his opponent.
So Isai but for boxing
This could make sense to be honest.
I swear I heard Glass Joe beat one of the highest ranked boxers due to a major fluke. Like high ranked fighter literally fell into an uppercut after losing his footing or something. The combination of the fall and the uppercut ended up knocking out the high ranked fighter, giving Glass Joe his one victory.
I heard that's how Gabby Jay got his win.
It’s bald bull. When bald bull went for the pull charge he got a lucky uppercut and got him down
Nick Bruiser.
Mike Tyson?
Nick bruiser
I love how analyzing one small detail can completely flip around how you view a series just for it to make full sense
Looking back on this game as an actual boxer now it’s pretty funny how it is so strange. The way they wind up their punches and stuff, to the way the teleport (great tiger). When I was younger I grew up playing this, Zelda, and Pokémon. Nintendo will never be taken out of the number one company for anything technology.
There is a video recently of Mike Tyson actually playing MT Punch Out. And he lost to Glass Joe.
That's where his win came from. It has come full circle.
Did you watch the video numb nuts??? He mentioned that at the start...
@@colinjohnston8519 it's a joke "numnuts". He's saying glass Joe's 1 win is mike Tyson
Calvin Miller It’s a joke my dude, damn...
@Calvin Miller thats because Punch out takes place after 2 years ago
R/woosh
Glass Joe's first win was actually from Nick Bruiser, but since it was a "freak accident", it wasn't counted as a loss on Nick's record.
I dont think thats how wins/losses count. It also couldve been a TKO win too if he won by points alone. The thing with glass joe is he throws alot of upwards rights and i think its because that was his winning punch he wound up relying on it heavily. Whats interesting is in the Bull fight when he does his bull charge move a similar glass joe style right is a quick counter to take him out.
I wonder how the freak accident happened
Perhaps as it was a freak accident, the win later became rescinded, sometime in between punch-out and super punch-out.
I think the punch out and super punch out it two different timelines where glass joe beats nick bruiser. Which starts punch out then he lost or retire before nick even show up which start super punch out
Really?
Thank you so much for explaining this Great Tiger!!

I just always assumed it was like how toothpaste brands never say "10/10 dentists approve!" or how soap companies never say "kills 100% bacteria"
My theory is that glass joe beat vodka drunkensky, but then when nintendo changes his name to soda popinsky the WVBA also changes the name of his records but they forgot to change the name of glass joe victory and now he still has his victory, but it is against someone who "technically" doesn't exist in the association
But how the fuck would glass joe beat popinsky?
he thought it'd be so easy he could beat him so he challenged himself to be blackout drunk to make it harder and he passed out right after joe punched him, which technically counted as a win

Glass Joe actually did beat someone but the thing is, Glass Joe was in the ring with someone who had a heart attack and went into cardiac arrest. He ended up being given the win without any punches pulled since the person died, so that is why. That is legit the actual answer.

Wow the Minor Circuit is incredible: Mac at 17 yo and not even having fought yet is ranked #3, while glass Joe at 1-99 is ranked #2
Glass Joe beat me one time.

I actually laughed so hard out loud when you showed the react kids getting destroyed by glass joe 😂
@CSmiley So its bad to have more advance learning systems?
Yeah we should make kids survive in the woods at the age of 3.
CSmiley while I agree with your point of newer games being easier, the kids who played the game probably expected the game to be a “spam punch to win” game. Going in with the wrong mindset would not end well. If these kids got a rundown on how to play the game + a few tips then they would probably beat glass joe.
lol m8 I'm 12 and play on A Classic Nintendo, I beat glass joe in a minute and they are legit teenagers
CSmiley
Are you trying to be elitist over Punch Out?
CSmiley Heck, I’m 10, and picked up that game extremely easily.
If Glass Joe has his own boxing school, and winning a match against him both gives you a win on your record and lets you graduate, what if one of Glass Joe’s STUDENTS lost to him? That would explain the win because the boxers are inexperienced enough to actually go to Glass Joe’s boxing school.
Another thing that backs the game within a game theory is that there is an arcade machine of the original Punch Out in Doc and Mac' training gym in Mac's reveal trailer for Smash WiiU/3DS. The original arcade games and the SNES version of Super Pinch Out also use the power meter mechanic while the NES and Wii games (aka Mac's games) use hearts and stars.

After the wvba took Mike tyson's title and illegally gave it to mr dream I lost any trust for the wvba.
John Mckinley what do you mean? Mr dream got it legally, mikes licenses ran out
Rainbow Dash you just proved my point. Mr dream never won the title from Tyson. Mr dream was nothing but a paper champion put in by the wvba to unjustly take tyson's title.
Rainbow Dash It makes sense Tyson lost the title, but it doesn't make sense that they just decided who the new champion was.
Let's not forget their years of turning a blind eye to blatant cheating in the ring during the '90s (kicking, spitting, elbow-dropping, wielding a FUCKING CANE)!
John Mckinley I'd always had serious concerns with them sanctioning matches between 107 pound Little Mac and heavyweights like Mr. Sandman, Super Macho Man, Piston Honda.
I introduced my cousin to Punch Out one Thanksgiving, after going all the way to Bald Bull (and proceeding to mess up the Bull Charges) I handed him the controller and taught him how to play. His first match against Glass Joe was hilarious and sticks to me, cause the dude (and he's not like some toddler or anything, we were both teenagers when this happened, and he's pretty good at fighting games) managed to go three rounds with Glass Joe, and LOSE by decision to the judges, and I still laugh at that
You know that is one of the challanges
@@1ka690 I did actually, I brought this up to him afterwards and how it was considered one of the harder challenges

One thing i just noticed is that when comparing wins/losses, some returning characters have less wins and more losses.
The arcade version was one of my favorite video games - after playing for a few years and never losing to Glass Joe one day I let him get a punch in and after that he changed his style and started doing crazy moves and knocked me out so the one win was against me probably...

What about nick bruiser

Glass Joe is dead

Glass Joe did win over a sandbag. there was even a judge, at the fight, it was a clean punch, that gave Glass Joe a victory.
I feel like he nearly lost too.
Where is the evidence?
He almost failed too
0:53 Mike Tyson Can’t Beat Glass Joe
My theory is that his opponent gave up because Glass Joe wouldn't stay down, and the opponent just felt bad about punching his face so much.
Oh, you're one of THOSE guys who call *"Mario" as **_"MARY-OH"_*
what's it like killing people?
that's how it's officially pronounced
I HATE when people say it mary-oh. I don't care about official pronunciations it's much better on the ears hearing Mario as in mar-eo
@@lx-elitez7413 is it? Because I dont recall the VA saying "its a me, Mary-Oh"
@@the_original_Bilb_Ono that's the Italian accent. The Japanese developers pronounce it "mary-oh"

I liked how you used the Gabby Jay “Yay” line the first two times you mentioned him.
I like how Glass Joe always has that "what the hell am I doing here?" expression on his face, lol.
The reason why Nick doesn’t have the loss is because the win was “a freak accident”. This IS the canon answer from Nintendo
Yeah....sports records don't work that way, Nintendo.
@@DarthCuda my headcanon is that nick has a perfect record because the situation was so absurd that he disregarded the loss, while glass joe held on to it and uses it as motivation to keep going
@@Underworlder5 i like to think the Bruiser bros are millionaires and bribed the WVBA to remove the loss and Joe can keep his win
@@StarForceBelmont321 My headcanon is that the fight between Nick and Joe was a freak accident that, in any other fight, both the winner's victory and the loser's defeat would've been removed, but the WVBA felt so sorry for the awful history record of Glass Joe that they decided to leave his victory intact, thus only removing Nick's defeat.
I hope my English has been clearly understood.
@@joseespartamarin9174 Clear as can be. Also I like that theory.
It was James Rolfe trying to beat him with the Power Glove
Holy shit you're right
“I lost to Glass Joe”
They could've meant Rick Bruiser, as he looks similar to his brother and is only a letter off from Nick. Rick also has 1 loss, meaning it could've been Glass Joe. Unless another theory comes up stating that Nick falsified his record to try and keep a perfect image.
Wdym? he has one loss since his brother Nick beat him
@@jaxsonruiz-davis4950 And he LET his brother beat him.
@@AgdaFingers i'm pretty sure that's an excuse he made to cover up his mistake
It's impressive that Glass Joe still got his marbles after getting knocked-out so many times.
Its simple, from his look you can tell he's an amateur and scared so right before his first fight, Joe accidently broke a mirror with one punch thinking it was his opponent. That gave him one win and the nickname Glass Joe but unfortunately that gave him 99 years bad luck. So he defeated himself just like Jack Nicholson said in the Shining, "I think...he did it to himself" but hey that's a movie filled with unanswered questions.
Jw Nj heck
Glass Joe = Glass jaw
Jw Nj 99 years of bad luck?
so is joe in the mid hundreds?
My theory:
Dev A: ok first enemy what should his win record be?
Dev B: hm... 1-99
Dev A: Any particular reason?
Dev B: Naw
To be fair it makes kinda sense to have that number, as it shows that he isn't realy that strong but also that the is not a full push over.
Now I want to know what Glass Joe's first loss was.
I sometimes rewatch this vid when im bored. God bless
Maybe Joe's rival didn't show up, giving Joe an automatic victory
That makes sense
@@yayito1582 Nick Bruiser didn't evem show up
Or Joe fought an opponent who decided to try to cheat so badly (even by punchout standards) that they had no choice but to disqualify him and give Joe the win. How you could cheat more obnoxiously than Aran Ryan is beyond me
@@GreyWind1988 1: Maybe DK? He has 19 infractions and maybe Joe got the win because, at that time, it was considered animal cruelty abd...guess they gave him somethkng (even tho DK has 19 infractions qne Aran Ryan 20)
2: who's Joe
These are all decent theories, but unfortunately, they can't be canon. Glass Joe's record states his one victory was a KO.
If you can sit and watch a man talk about a video game character for 10min with that kind of seriousness. That's a damn good video
captainkrillz Seems like he rambling a bit to get the 10 minutes
Congrats on 1M subs!!!
This is the video that introduced me to your channel... Now I'm at the point where one of my friends changed his username on a few things to NotWhang due to us referring to him as such 😂 Anyway idk the point of tell you this, but I'm a huge fan! Keep up the great work!
Man, Punch Out really needs a new game, just look how praised the wii game was
Dk is in it
Matheus Vasiliauskas Soares lets call it Super Punch Out
Punch Out Ultimate.
Every fighter is back.
He said he would retire after 3 losses so know there is no more punch out
There’s kinda a Punch Out game, not officially made by Nintendo though. Its a VR game that works like Punch Out too
Its called Knockout League if anyone has a VR Headset and wants to try it too, its a pretty tiring game too since you gotta dodge all these attacks and throw some punches.
