While I agree that on any given day anyone can have his ass handed to them ( been there done it and had it done to me), I don't understand what he thought he was doing there a few times...
High chin, arms out, open, I am surprised He didn't get clipped just for those cardinal sins.
As for getting hit when trying to get up, what happens just showed his lack of experience in that situation, that's all.
I am sure he learned His lesson and it won't happen again.
Psalms 144:1
Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
