This was great as a quick joke, as always. The scores for these just keep getting higher! I guess he had met his match. This seems to make sense to me. The animation was pretty good. I couldn't tell if this was a sequel or a reference to the first game.
I'm going to say the latter. It does make you think about blocking. I mean, you can still get a hit in if you punch someone like that. It's still aiming. I rarely use that in fighting games.
