Glass Joe is a cheerful yet cowardly and fragile 38-year-old French boxer from Paris famous for his historic 1-99 win-loss record. Nervous and Cowardly: He is easily intimidated, openly complains about his physical ailments, and famously begs opponents not to hit his weak chin Patriotic and Proud: he enthusiastically embraces his heritage with his iconic "Vive la France!" taunt, a love for croissants and coffee, and a ring entrance featuring Parisian landmarks. Complainer: Between rounds, he gripes about being too old to fight, having stomach aches, or wearing boxing gloves that are too tight. Optimistic Underdog: Despite facing near-constant defeat and a reputation as the ultimate series punching bag, he stubbornly keeps returning to the ring to chase a championship win.
