Well at least they were very effective because it worked for him. His style was so awkward and when you add in the weird angles, footwork and the fact that he was also a southpaw. It made it almost impossible to defend against.

Alotta you guys must be noobs because if you wanna see real body punching go check out prime Barrera, chave sr and mccallum.

The guy is criminally overrated and I'm stunned he was never beaten down like Bute. Probably because he never fought anyone
No matter how you scored his fight with Hopkins though it was still neck and neck so even if you had Hopkins winning Joe was still very much in the fight.
That is honestly one of the worst fights to watch ever though. It's criminally hard to score with all the nonsense that went on...holding, low output, blocked/missed punches, weak/soft landing punches.Comment

I recognize his talent but vicious punching and Calzaghe doesn't belong in the same sentence? What's next? Fireworks from Andre Ward? Boxing clinic by Provodnikov? That granite chin of Amir Khan? Unmatched will and warrior mentality of Nicholas Walters?The guy is criminally overrated and I'm stunned he was never beaten down like Bute. Probably because he never fought anyone

Nobody can ever convince me he wasn't a fraud.
