To me that is the most effecient strategy in matial arts. I have only been able to do that once when I was younger and it was in front of a crowd and it felt great for my ego at the time ( now of course I try not to have one) that's the buddist in me LOL but anyways I was not comparing attacking and defending since they are one in the same see #3.
But in my opinon the highest level of fighting it to be so efficient that you need not spend time on attacking, defending , countering and redirecting, when all that is needed is to end the confrontaion with minimal effort.......... hence one block one punch
that seems more of the ideal than the reality though...
