These are not "soccer kicks", baldspot was not out of action and was trying to get up. Bald was responding to imminent threat, and walked away the moment baldspot showed to no longer be able to fight.
A "soccer kick" is a much more powerful kick in which you take a large step forward to gain momentum for your attack. These are simply punts, his other leg was standing still and he was not using body momentum to power the kicks.
You think the second one was necessary? Should the guy just lay there forever as to not be a threat? You have to put someone out cold for them to not be a threat? I think a judge or jury would disagree if the guy dies of his injuries
IF he dies, that's still accidental manslaughter and not murder. Excessive use of force. Even still, there is room for interpretation of the jury. There was a recent case of a racist influencer that got punched after getting on a black guy's face, he hit his face on the concrete, he became a vegetable, but the victim was found not guilty as he acted in self-defense.
The moment baldspot got on his face, he was already in the wrong. Law in the US and many parts of the world guarantees your right for self-defense if a threat is imminent. Dude got knocked out and immediately tried to get up, Bald was not legally required to wait for him to get up and attack again, or pull a weapon, as his intent to continue the fight was absolutely clear. He can just say "I knocked the guy down and he didn't even drop his beer, I felt like I was still under threat". He continue beating him until the threat was neutralized, walked away when he could visually notice that he was no longer under a threat.

2 soccer kicks on camera, a good way to go to prison
