you guys ever seen a real sword fight? i mean it can be boooooring... or it can be incredibly fast. like in sabre competition everything happens in a fraction of a second. and it's all over.
when they compete with swords there is a lot fo tactics involved and sometimes nothing may happen for a few minutes and then suddenly swish swish and it's all over (well in real life it would be in competition you just get a point and things move on). not to mention that in competition a lot of times both opponents are hit the same time.
