I know that fighting does not require contact but it didn't seem right to call this act fighting. Guess I need to reconsider my thought process here.

Also no way the foul by B1 should have been upgraded, it wasn't even close to intentional nor was it excessive contact.
I honestly think you handled it correctly, assuming the movie in my brain matches what happened. I'm thinking more of a reactive flail than a premeditated attempt to strike the opponent.
