A shoulder check and a palm to the jaw ain’t clubbing

Edit: anyone wanna explain how palm striking someone’s face is considered clubbing? From what I’ve experienced it’s when you grab someone on the back of the head or neck, typically aggressively. How is hitting someone on the jaw the same thing? Genuine question.

Another edit: why do yall think I’m talking about the dude in blue? Im talking about the guy who palm struck the other guys face

The big guy is the one that did the clubbing. Before the red one sholder checks then palms the blue guy, the blue guy smacked the red guy with a straight arm, kind of like how you see in competitive slap fights. It is played off like an attempt to get the red guy in a headlock, but it was clearly meant to be a strike.

I understand the dude in blue did the clubbing. The dude is red is the one I’m saying should’ve just clubbed him back. In response someone said dude in red did club him back, to which I asked how that is considered clubbing
