We're talking about his fighting skills, not his intelligence in planning out crimes and whatnot. His insane-genius is what makes him Batman's arch-nemesis, not his ability to physically kick-ass.
All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.

I completely agree. But the thing is, he's smart enough to figure out ways to match Batman in combat. Or, if necessary, to avoid it. While it's mostly intelligence, if he was a 'wimp' with a total lack of fighting skills, he wouldn't have been able to accomplish his feats. During the movie, he's did display above-average fighting skills.
The idea of "Joker is a wimp" is just as silly as the idea that he's an ubwr unbeatable martial artist.
Yeah Joker has some fighting knowledge he's by no means great, but he could take down the average fighter. Unfortunately for him Marv is not an average fighter. Marv can take a few with his hatchet before they even notice him steal a gun, take a few shots in the process but in the end gun the rest of them down.

Marv murders the Joker and his useless henchmen within minutes. There is just nothing that they could to do Marv, especially as he is blitzing them and dropping fists on their heads.
Why do people keep saying that the Joker has fighting knowledge? What in the Dark Knight suggests that? His display of hand to hand combat in that movie resembled nothing more than average fighting skill. Yeah, he was able to get some hits in on Batman but he always had Trained attack dogs or Henchmen with him.

ditto. the man took down heavily armed swat teams and even oneshotted a carnivorous dog with a back hand. the guy would oneshot the dogs and shove the iron rod up joker's ass and then toss him outta the window while smoking a cigarette.
