Both referee's responded as if to break up a fight by running at the two players. On the video, the punch was clear and based on where the two referee's were standing (one under the basked with a clear view, one behind and to near mid-court with a clear view, A1 and B1 at the top of the key) and how they moved it is clear they saw the punch. There was no reason to move based on the foul before the punch.
A1 did not land a good punch because he had to strech to land it, but B1 confirmed that it landed and as evidenced on the video.

Curious Fan-
Never assume that even though the video may show that it appears that the officials had a clear view of what happened.
They may have had their vision focused elsewhere. Just look at instant replay in any sport, You can slow it down see it a hundred times, change the angle and have your judgement tainted.
Never assume you were not the officials on the floor, cant say way what they saw.
