A single punch can kill a person. More often, it breaks jaws, fractures eye sockets, knocks out teeth, broken noses, sometimes causes permanent vision damage, or brain damage.
When someone assaults you (or your girlfriend) without provocation, you should not have to allow yourself to be permanently maimed in order to minimize the harm to your assailant. Your jaw, your nose, even a single of your teeth are worth more than the life of the person who attacked you.
ANY level of force is justified in eliminating or neutralizing the threat under these circumstances, as far as I'm concerned. And the fastest and most reliable way to neutralize a threat is to kill them. It's that simple.
It would only be excessive force if you continued to use violence once it was clear that the assailant no longer posed a threat.
Don't like it? Don't attack innocent people without provocation.
