Two guys punching each other in the face isn't that bad. If you watched hockey, you'd know that the guys who do fight, are basically there to fight. They enforce a physical presence for their team, and protect other players. Nobody forces anyone to fight. If someone doesn't fight and the other guy drops the gloves, he'll get a penalty. All you have to do is not drop your gloves. Or you can turtle like some guys do to draw a penalty. Thats just cheap.
What about boxing? Or any other fighting sport for that matter?

boxings goal, is to incapacitate the player.
Hockeys isnt. Hockeys is to get the puck, in the goal. Not to fist fight the dude.
