Since afaik no one saw the beginning or middle of the fight, just the part right before the shooting, maybe they rolled over at some point? Just wondering.

And this part makes me wonder since Zimmerman was the one who had been trained in MMA. "Under cross examination by Zimmerman's lawyer, Good said he believes he saw Martin on top punching Zimmerman "MMA style," a reference to mixed martial arts."

Since Zimmy was the one trained in MMA, and the one on top was "mma style", and it was dark enough that the cones in his eyes were unable to differentiate color yet he thought he could see the difference between red and black (yes, in the dark we lose our ability to differentiate colors), it makes me suspect his version.
