Should a man be charged if he breaks a woman's skull in self defense?

Let's say the woman just kept threatening him. She slapped him and hit. This time she tried to punch him but he dodged and punched her skull. But the punch was so strong it broke her skull. This Happened to a guy in my neighborhood. He punched a girl in self defense and is currently facing charges.

Update:

*Yeah I'm fine with men hitting women in self defense case but Im not sure about breaking the body.
