The last attack. Virgil is sooooo sloppy. Missing Dante altogether. This isn't what Virgil does when fighting. He's too focused for that.
The only way to make sense of this is that a part of Virgil wanted to lose. So he puts on a show of trying to attack Dante in the last attack before falling off the cliff. He already knew he was beaten when he fell down already. And he's too prideful to admit he lost at that point.
