Fighting and demo

I like to watch a fight. I watched a lot of fights on youtube, professional, demonstration, or amateur. One thing distinctively different from professional and demonstration is that, in a real fight, a kick or a punch, will definitely be bounced back. It can never be like in a movie, where a man punched his enemy, which flied out, and the punch seemed to be completely went through. The movements would always be pretty. But the reality is far off. When a professional do a round house kick, if it was landed correctly and timely, the initiator would usually be in a better position than the kicked. Although the kicker would still be in a weird position, because the kick would usually not go through like kicking in thin air. It would most likely ended up resting on the opponent's shoulder, arm, or even being pushed back a little.

If the kicker did not landed his attack correctly and timely, the advantage would be on the other side. But in a demonstration, you would see students being pushed out, flying out, jumped and jumped, and out. It is powerful, but the reason behind most of the case is because, students were not moving, they did not resist. They are there for the demonstration. They are set for demonstration psychologically.
