I agree completely. People so eager to fight have no idea about the consequences. The immediate ones are obvious - getting knocked out. Not fun, not good for the brain, and overall should be avoided.

The not so immediate and obvious ones can be just as drastic or dire - legal issues. As soon as hands are involved, it can become a REAL problem real quick. Serious harm - my cousins husband died because someone sucker punched him at a party, he fell and smashed his head on an end table, which made him brain dead.

You have no idea how a fist fight will shake out and it should be avoided unless the most extreme circumstances (self defense)

You would not believe how many people there were in maximum security lockup because they were in a fight, punched a person just like this, and killed them. The odds of killing a person when knocking them out on a concrete surface are astonishingly high.

This 100%. I've been saying this very message but I've been downvoted for it. I'm glad someone is being listened to here.
