What are you? In junior high?

Any mutually agreed upon fight has to be sanctioned by governing bodies in the US and Canada. A fight club is illegal and you can get in big trouble if you hurt someone, regardless of whatever they may have signed beforehand. Do you really want to be sued for thousands of dollars?

Unless it's a professional fight under the auspices of a sancationed organization you will somehow wind up in trouble. Even if you fight back in self defense you can still wind up in a lot of trouble if you hurt someone, because you may have skills and they don't.

If I attacked a good fighter and he tooke me down, armbarred me from the side, and broke my arm, he would be in trouble. For excessive force as well as doing damage after I was no longer a threat.

Just don't do it.
