          That seems harsh on the guy who kicked him out, he did walk into it a bit....

            True but I reckon I'm good enough to wave my hands around aimlessly and make a hash of trying to kick him.

              I was trying to say I feel bad for the guy who got DQed. I agree you could present a viable target

                                      it's not a full contact sport in this form, though. It's a skill competition/demonstration as far as I know.
