Didn't Kakashi pretty much do that after he was freed from the water sphere prison? Neither was really hurt and Kakashi proceeded to own him. That's why Zabuza used the mist the second time.

Well, buff manly men in general. I don't quite know the obsession with Zabuza though, as he's relatively scrawny.
EDIT-
And I just checked those "lacerations" by the way. They're no teven that deep, first off. Second off, Neji had amassive hole put in his body only a few inches from his heart and was super low on chakra yet he still moved both of his hands so fast that both of his hands were blurs. Genin level Neji has greater durability than Zabuza?
Do you know what the Sharingan does? Apparently not, It can bore into a persons mind and play tricks on them. That is why Kakashi won their first fight, well that and Naruto and Sasuke saving him fromt he water sphere. Kakashi and Zabuza were bascially equal at the time they fought, Why would they introduce a villian who Kakashi is alot better than to move the plot at that time?
As i said before there was no way Kakashi was going to die that early in the story, Zabuza was just a charcter to make Kakashi and the sharingan look good. Just like Haku was there to make Naruto look good, He wasn't going to win the fight.
Only we know that Kim is much better at Taijutsu than Naruto, unlike with Zabuza and Kakashi.
He was held still by the dogs, and then was barely moving when fighting Kakashi, half-limping while swinging his sword.
Then, a few pages later after some of the fight has taken place off-panel, at some point Zabuza was stick in the arms, and shoulder areas with several kunai.
It was at this point when Kakashi was able to do that b!tch punch you like to go on about.
A direct implication that Zabuza is presently too injured to have a chance at beating him.
Now, I never have said that Zabuza is stronger than Kakashi, only that in terms of Taijutsu Kakashi does not completely dominate Zabuza, if at all, they were equal the times they fought before, when both were primed, Kakashi won before through the use of the Sharingan and jutsus.
The first kick Zabuza landed on Kakashi knocked him through the air and put him in position to be trapped in the water sphere, Maybe in the Naruto you people watched you didnt see that. Kakashi stated himself if Naruto and Sasuke didnt help him he would of died.
It the creator stats show that Zabuza is better than Kakashi then he is, why even discuss what the creator already stated? We all know Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura are the main charaters so they werent going to die early in the story and neither was Kakashi another popular character. Why didnt Haku just put Naruto and Sasuke to sleep and then help Zabuza kill Kakashi? In fact Haku was suppose to be able to kill or put his opponent so sleep with one needle so why didnt he?
In the second fight with Zabuza and Kakashi it wasnt really a fight. Kakashi again state that he knew Zabuza was the type of opponent who liked to clown around so Zabuza wasnt serious at first. Zabuza himself stated he wanted to toy with Kakashi before killing him as pay back from their first fight. After the dogs bit Zabuza's arms, back and legs he was done. It is also hard to fight a person who has mastered the Sharingan in a head to head fight just using taijutsu to began with.
I also mentioned this already. Zabuza was the first real villian on Naruto, Why introduce a villian who is alot weaker than the main characters? What would that prove? Zabuza was a elite Jonin and Kakashi was a elite Jonin. Zabuza would of won both fights if Kakashi wasnt saved in the first fight and if Zabuza didnt get to cocky and get bit in their second fight.
