Ok so this situation is bad to begin with. If I'm on my back in this hypothetical fight this means I've f*cked up in numerous stages:

1. Avoiding the fight altogether.
2. Not landing a sucker punch.
2. Not executing a guillotine/headlock when he shot in.

So if I'm on the ground and have no other alternatives, I would first establish guard. The reaction of a typical attacker is to start reigning punches down quickly without much regard to his base. At this point I would have my forearms in front of my face. I would take first opportunity to grab an arm that presented itself and pull him in for an armlock or a triangle. Put him to sleep or hyper-extend the arm.

Yes this is assuming there are no weapons involved and that none of his friends and none of my friends start stomping away. However, it's impossible to train for every type of scenario.
