The reason for his reaction is mostly because, quite simply, he cannot predict this person. Normally, he is quite amused with the people that he can't predict. He thinks that it's fun, because they're the volatile sort. But if he were to go into a fight with them, if he was to drag them down so that they'd want to kill him, he could anticipate what they would do. In short, he could break their spirits completely and utterly -- he could see their pained faces and smile happily at their ruined selves before he finally lets them taste death.
This boy -- he doesn't think he'd be able to do that. That's the first person he's met that he is certain of that. The strength of the person doesn't matter; this person doesn't necessarily have to be strong, but Hisoka has met someone that he doesn't want to fight. ]
