In what way would it settle a dispute? You would end up with a system where the best fighters could do anything they want to anyone they want. Do you really think the losers are just going to walk away happy?

Of course they won't be happy unless you like getting your arse kicked. Argument is now over and both sides can move on now.

The argument would not be over the loser would now just up the ante on the violence until someone got killed.

Turning society into some kind of dog fighting ring is just about one of the dumbest ideas I have heard in a long time.

Now you are making assumptions. Dog fighting had it's day. While it was great while it lasted we have to move on.

Why? Both have spent time in prison. And the USC football team did win a championship while Orenthal James Simpson attended that fine university. He also won a relay championship with the track team. Trojans!!!
