After watching many of futsau's clips he's shared on various forums, he does a lot of grabbing and pulling into his space as well as collapsing structure. And maybe that's his idea of WC. But I'm not so sure he understands fwd pressure/intent/etc as most good WC linages view this common/basic principle.
Funny to then hear him tell someone else 'they are wrong'..

If I pull while my other arm / leg strikes...it has an amplifying effect.
Agree! The "head on collision" is perfect for the striking model.

In striking:

you move forward + your opponent moves forward (A + B > A) >
you move forward + your opponent is not moving (A + 0 = A) >
you move forward + your opponent moves backward (A - B < A)

Don´t forget two things, in above scenario neither car comes out a winner.

And things get worse if the thing approaching you is not a car but a large truck.

It depends on which part of your body meets with which part of your opponent's body. If your fist meets with your opponent's face, it will be to your advantage.
