So looks like it didn't happen directly outside the pub. McKenna had walked down the street. The part about all the parties being inside the same pub at one point, may be BS. Or perhaps everyone was at Doggies and just happen to run into each other again a block away. Doesn't necessarily sound like anyone was waiting for anyone else.
Edit: The details about the a white backwards hat and puffer jacket, definitely make me lean against McKenna in this one though. Based on my experience growing up in Calgary in the 90s, anyone wearing a puffer jacket and backwards hat was likely out looking for trouble.

Looking at the map of the area, the Pugh Street Parking Garage just a block over on the same side of the street as Doggie's. It makes me wonder if one of them pursued the other from the bar entrance before the physical altercation started. If McKenna pursued him away from the bar entrance to the area in front of the garage, the narrative changes somewhat and probably makes convicting on one of the more serious charges easier. If the other guy pursued him, it probably makes a plea for lesser charges easier. It also doesn't say if the punches were in quick succession. If he punched him once and the guy tried to bail, and he hit him again, that would be bad for McKenna.
The video should clear some of that up.
