Interesting that the attacker tried to determine if the soon to be victim was carrying a gun...

POLICE BRIEFS: Juvenile group suspected of playing 'knockout game' | members.jacksonville.com

The victim told police that he believed the boys were playing the “knockout game.” He said he was approached on the beach by one of the boys who asked him if he had a “Glock.” The man was punched after admitting that he was unarmed.
Fearing that the boy would continue to hit him until he was unconscious, the man grabbed at a folding knife that he had tucked into his waistband and pretended to have a gun. The boys fled, and the man enlisted the help of his neighbor to search for the boys.

Sounds like the victim would have been entirely within his rights to draw some blood from the assailant.
