Since he trained this way for like 15 years he now has it completly ingrained into him that this is how you fight and it's just not a smart thing to do against someone looking to take you down for LOTS of reasons.
My instructor said something I thought was kinda amusing, but it pertains to this. We were talking about the bouncing in a stance and he said "No base, no structure, no fight."
