Alec had not seen 'crawling on the ceiling' coming.

The punch made contact. His body pushed forward from the impact, but instead of stepping forward, Alec kicked back with his left foot right behind him like a horse, then followed it up by twisting his body to bring his right hand onto Peter's right shoulder. Regardless if either made contact, he jumped back, hands up in a defensive position.
