Update by @unknown
In conversation on Discord, it appears that the issue is that when a PVP player is killed in Java Edition, it is knocked back and its death animation occurs a little distance away, but that this knocking back does not happen in Bedrock. It apparently doesn't significantly affect gameplay except for limiting the surviving players' view of the arena.
Original description:
As the bedrock edition of the game becomes the new primary version i believe you need to make it look and feel like the old Java edition of the game.
There is one thing that really affects the old PVP community on that edition and that is...
Knockback! Knockback in the bedrock version of the game is completely BROKEN you can litteraly make someone fly using your fist.

Not everyone here is familiar with knockback in PVP play on Java - it's kind of a specialized regime - so please explain in better detail. Are you talking about the game mechanic or about the enchantment? What do you do to observe this? What did you expect to happen, and what actually happened that was different? When you talk of "old Java edition", do you mean pre-1.9 combat mechanics, or is it just a way of saying "the old (former) Minecraft edition" with its current mechanics?.
Don't assume that Bedrock combat is intended to match the new Java combat mechanics; it isn't, because Pocket Edition's design was based on pre-1.9 Java. If you are asking that it be upgraded to the new mechanics, that's a feature request and belongs on the feedback site. This site is only for bug reports.

Ikr, I hate the knockback in Bedrock, especially when you're playing Skywars.\
