Let's please not let things wander into ethnic/immigrant arguments. Sounds like this was a young guy out with his mates who was feeling cocky and shooting his mouth off. If we get caught at a loss for words and make a crack that's a little "off sides" in the ethnic department when looking for a rejoinder, then that's unfortunate...but it happens...it doesn't make us bad people but we should all try to keep it on a personal basis and not stray into stereotyping.
As I said earlier, that's where having a rich and colorful collection of profanities and perjoratives comes in handy...you can call anybody everything under the sun and still not venture into ethnic references.
...and Beloitpiper is right...he is a big 'un and that fella obviously misjudged both his size and his sense of righteousness when he took a swing at him.
But as Rodney King once said, "Why can't we just all get along?"
Best
