Part luck, part knowledge...but he went down, and I'm glad it was on grass instead of concrete, because that can really change the situation.

A lot of times in a fight the real damage can come when someone flops to the ground onto an unforgiving surface. That's when just throwing a simple punch can result in a murder charge, so it's really not worth getting involved unless your life is threatened.
