Nobody should be made to fight in a cage against their will, but then again nobody should be made to attend public school either or pay for it for that matter.
However if two people want to settle their dispute this way who am I to say they can't? When I was a kid about 8 or 9 one Christmas my brother and I got boxing gloves. Yeah we used to wail on each other in the backyard and now and then the rest of the neighborhood boys would establish and re-establish the pecking order via the gloves but then we dropped this habit when we discovered girls a few years later. Still have all my teeth, still get along with my brother. Still like girls. Still can't box.
