If someone is walking up on you and wants to fight, trying to trap their hands (especially in the way he demonstrates) and break their structure before countering is asking to get knocked out.
a more realistic (imho) response is to get a good protective guard up (like the Thai Long Guard, or the "turtle," or the "dracula"), counter, and then get away.
let's see it work against a much larger opponent that just doesn't stand there and let you stick to them. FFS
When you compete or do sparring with gloves, you don't have the opportunity to get in and attach to you opponent.

why? Shouldnt we be able to connect and adhere with any surface?
Sensitivity is not just in the hands. And how about in winter wearing thick winter clothes. Sensitivity should go deeper and further than just stay on the surface
