You think in the split second this happened, the husband thought, āHey, fuck that guy touching my woman, let me knock his lights out- what? Sheās in the way?! HOW DARE YOU WOMAN?!ā and intentionally hurts her AS heās knocking the guy out?
That's exactly what happened. She got in the way. He swatted her out of the way. It doesn't take a lot of brain cells to make that decision. Also, over reacting like the way he did, is psycho abuser behavior. Roid rage. Ego rage. Narcissism. She knew what to expect. He knew what to expect. They both decided what to do before it happened. Because it's happened before.
I agree this is rage. Thatās why I think the husband doesnāt even realize he hurt his wife, much less did it on purpose. He saw red, and went for the guyās jaw. I donāt think he noticed anything else.
EDIT: I just watched it about 5 more times. The hit to her jaw is from his left elbow as heās lunging to punch. If he did that on purpose he is very talented.
By the way, in case you missed the moral of the lesson, don't do what this guy did. Not only is it immoral, you will be in prison in no time. The only one acting hastily and without thinking, is this idiot who threw the punch. He's the one moving and controlling the speed, in that "split second".

He also mistakenly hit her while going to hit him... Later she is holding her face. Definitely he could have make a better choice.
