The greatest enemy to realistic training is compliancy. However, since we cannot beat each other to death in training, there has always got to be some.
But any training where the "attacker" merely throws one highly telegraphed punch, and then stands still, is detrimental to the training of realistic stuff.

True.
This is a demonstration video for teaching fundamental techniques, so the defender is static. I'm sure they have a defense-takedown video as well.
Can you imagine a boxing instruction video where the instructor teaches how to throw a jab at his assistant and the assistant slips inside and lands a smashing overhand right...lol.
Not good for teaching.
