He was arrested on suspicion of GBH (Grievous Bodily Harm) and will now be taken to custody for questioning.
Footage emerged earlier this week showing Robinson, 42, walking back and forth by the motionless man on the floor.
In the footage on Monday, Robinson can be heard shouting ‘he’s come at me’ and ‘you saw him come at me’.
Although he was filmed shouting nearby to the unconscious man, it is not known how the man ended up on the floor motionless.
British Transport Police (BTP) said on Monday that the man had been taken to hospital with ‘serious but non-life-threatening injuries’.
According to witnesses, emergency services performed CPR on a man who appeared to be unconscious on the floor.
A medical curtain was pulled up around the top of the escalators to platform B where a pool of blood had formed.
Forensic officers were also seen scouring the area and taking DNA samples from the handrail down to the platform.
The police force confirmed that he has now been discharged from hospital.
