Not that there’s a good reason for ever doing this, but why did this person punch him at all?

Probably mental illness.

Not all that unusual to see a guy walking some corner of town, ranting to himself in an agitated state. Social isolation, anxiety, fear, and frustration turning people into human-shaped time bombs just waiting to go off.
