Mutual Combat

After coming to this pond i was introduced to the concept of "mutual combat".
Two people see each other, have words and then decide to punch each other. Both agreed to fight, you can't be a victim. This clears up a lot of two person fights.

My last example was a young lady visits her neighbors. There is an argument and she throws a punch and then another punch, neither connects. The other half throws two punches, both connect. They separate, the person who "loser" now wants to press charges.
-no, its mutual combat. your attempted punches were an invitation to mutual combat. her punching you was the acceptance.
she isn't happy.
