I don't think the pictures are as good as they should be to really tell, but they don't appear to be punching bruises or bruises from defending herself.
Defensive bruises usually come from the forearms, upper arms and hands. They show picture of a bruise by her bicep which is in line with being grabbed and a bruise on the elbow. They take pictures of the upper arms and forearms, but I don't see any bruises, but on the upper bicep (grabbed) and on the elbow which would be more in line with falling.
The back wounds are more in line with a fall than punching. There's no smaller, circular wound where the outer part of the circle is yellow-ish and it's not a linear type of bruise which is more consistent with being struck with something like a stick or a bat.
The one possibility is that he may have grabbed her (consistent with the upper bicep bruise) and threw her into the tile bath tub herself.
However, Holder claims that he choked her and there is no bruising on her that is consistent with choking.
Of course, this depends on if her friend's claims are true and if she did admit to having done cocaine before. The cocaine use would make me believe that she wasn't of sound mind and could have thrown herself into the tile bathtub. And the shoe throwing accusation could make me believe he was retaliating against her.
The only other issue I have is the 911 police call from Laurence. She didn't actually see the incident, but she was in the other room. You have to feel like she would have been able to reasonably piece together what was happening and it didn't sound like she favored Hardy's side of the story.

I don't know anything about bruising but the choking doesn't look like ones I've seen on TV(real not CSI)
