DJ if he punched you in the back then i dont see what threat you were to him and therefore he aint got nuffin on you and even if it was the stomach your witnesses and testimony will show he cant use a pre-emptive defense. Cops are always lookin for the easy way out. Ok bit harsh but they smell a griefy job and try to put you under pressure so they dont have to follow through on a job that could get demanding but then you said they weren't the cops who would follow it up so maybe they were being realistic - personally I think those odds (80-85%) are pretty damn good and I would take that bet.
I got knocked down by a left turner who made off, the cops are prosecuting (I also have a good witness) and we go to court in the next three months. I won't say any more sub-justice and all that but the charges are due care and attention (not crime of the century) and failing to stop at the scene of an accident, which is a little more serious.
DJ - you decide but try to get some actual legal advice first.
