I don't find any need to justify it, but it was one of the first things I changed in my version of the rules.

 I allow characters to parry instead of attacking, or block if they have a shield, or dodge if they don't. A successful defence roll counters a successful attack roll. 
Critical hits and or fumbles are counted into the mix. You can drop or break a shield or parrying weapon on a fumble or disarm an attacker with a critical defence.
The character that rolled lowest for their attack or defence gets initiative on the following round...
