Who says that the guys hand was cut off first? What if it was one of the final wounds? Even if the intruder were rendered hand-less early on in the altercation, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take him to the ground and incapacitate him. At that point, the intruder is fighting for his life, and I'm sure that he fought as hard as he could for as long as he could, despite a missing hand and lots of blood loss.
