Now usually my stance is, especially since I boxed from about ages 6-14, is that throwing the 1st punch is ok but sucker punches and hitting or kicking someone when they're down is off limits.
Now this could be an extremely long story so I'm gonna get down to the bare essentials, an acquaintance of mine got into an altercation. Now me and this SIMILARLY AGED GENTLEMAN are just at the same bar 3-5 times a week, are confirmed eskimo brothers, and share a small group of mutual friends but seeing him get his ass kicked would just be
for me.
The problem arrives when after pushes are exchanged and a punch is thrown(by the other guy) my actual friend who works there stepped in and grabbed my acquaintance to drag him back inside the bar. At that point the other guy sucker punches the actual bouncer(my friend) who was resoving the argument...I enter scene from his right and drop him. Like drop him. His glasses snap in half, one half flying in one direction and the other quite possibly lodged in his cornea....thoughts?

Hate to say it, but if you were drinking in a bar and get into fight, then you probably have some responsibility unless you are attacked. Also since you have boxing experience you might be judged as more having liability if the guy you hit suffers damage (injuries).
Not a lawyer, but if you aren't viewed as a good samaritan, then it could be trouble.

1) a guy you have a mutual sex partner with
2) I have a cake job and when I say go to a bar I'm talking 3-4 beers just because I know everyone there. I 'go out' to party maybe once a week. Danielle Hunter, Jamario Rasco, Anthony FREAK Johnson.. DL wrecking crew of 2013.

Should I feel bad for this particular sucker punch?
