He was floating forward from the sheer speed and force of his movement trying to land his punch so he was midair. There was no saving himself if the punch missed because he couldn't move anywhere else, that's easy to capitalize on for any FTG user. I hear you. But i think it's a long shot to extrapolate that he was going for a guillotine drop-like attack using his hand where it's far more plausible that he was just using his lightning armor enhanced speed to get a direct hit. He even says maybe if i try again "with my top speed" before launching the same attack. While I agree Minato's FTG is faster, I don't think Minato's kunai is getting past the defense the cloak offers, so that slash would have counted for nothing.
