When you hit him in the face with your hand, you can, according to Newton, say that his face hit your hand. In fact, if you transfer 10 newtons into his face, 10 newtons is transferred back into your hand. This is why they teach you not to clench your fist before a strike in most punching martial arts; instead you have you fist slightly open and let the compression absorb the counter-force mechanically on your end.
