I think you made a error.
1. At 17 I wouldn't have been treated like that in front of my girl. I would have reacted, poorly at best. At 17 I had a temper and a mouth. I would have done or said something to appear like a man to her. And that's what you did. You challenged his manhood in front of her.
2. What was her being there going to hurt? Heck she may have pitched in to help.
3. You called his mom? At 17 you could have called my mom and all that would have done was make her mad a t me and me mad at her and you. At 17 I sure wasn't going to get punished. What was she going to do? Yell a little?

Could the kid have handles it better? Sure. He could have simply said I quit and walked away.
