Did you like it?
Many ICMA teachers like to talk about connection and maintaining contact, and use arts such as boxing, kickboxing, and Karate as examples of "disconnection" (while implying that they are less sophisticated and inferior).
Connection and disconnection shouldn't be either/or. A good IMA fighter should be able to do both, especially to have disconnection within connection (i.e., to keep certain body parts connected to the opponent while allowing others to move freely to strike and throw.)
