It's illegal for parents and/or guardians to let kids fight for sport. I don't practice family law, but that's the right place to ask your question. This would be charged upon adults as some kind of crime for allowing it.

As for the kids, they can't consent to sports fights, so it's criminal battery on each other.

I'm sickened by the thought of breeding kids to fight as much as I am sicked by the thought of breeding dogs to fight. SICK AND DISGUSTING and certainly against the laws which I am sworn to uphold.
