It's not about how i think, it's a fact. Respect is earned by fear. It's not the only way or the morally right way, but it's the most effective way. 

Is a sad little world you live in if fighting gets you respect.  Is pathetic playschool mentality.  When you're older, assuming you place yourself with people who's mental age reflects their physical one, people who get into fights are seen as oafs, brutes, complete pricks or maybe just arseholes, and nobody respects them.  They are seen as the arse end of society.

I didn't say fighting got/gets me respect.  I said it CAN and it WILL get you respect. 

The only people who judge it are insecure weak cowards who hide behind the cloak of ''maturity'' and manners. Im telling you, those people have incredibly easy lives, are fragile, sheltered babies that never had to worry about their image in their society 

You think people respect you because they fear you?
If someone fears you, they certainly don't respect you, they are actually Afraid/Hate you, in no-way, shape or form would they actually respect you.

People like yourself I pity greatly, the world is an amazing place, yet all you can think about is enacting violence to get your point across and think it's the right thing to do.
Well, it's not. You are causing not only Physical harm to someone else, but possibly mental aswell, the only thing I hope is that the same isn't done to yourself one day, or to your children.

UPDATE: this morning, I just got out of my house to go to the park cause it was Canada day today :D I barely got out of my yard, and there he was with his Girlfriend and a bunch of his friends. I didn't know if he was waiting for me, or he was just passing by going to the park like I was. but either way, he came at me without a word, and it was a slow hook, that I just dodged at the last second. it was on, and I was COMPLETLY unprepared. he had me on the ropes for a good 10 seconds with hook after hook, he was just flaming violently with his arms, and I blocked most of them, and he never got a clean hit. I decided to go on the offensive, and grabbed one of his arms as he was swinging it at me, and I yanked him closer while thrusting my fist forward at his face, and BOOM! right in the cheeck. and it hurt my fist more then I thought it would, but he went down on his ass for about a second or two, and got up quickly again. this time I was prepared, and he was STILL using the same hook after hook after hook, with almost no jabs and I was blocking them without much difficulty, but he was going at it so fast I couldn't do much else but block. this went on for a good minute, he got a few hits in and I was feeling a bit sore in the face, but he looked VERY tired, and I saw my chance, and went all out on him with repeated jabs to the stomach, and he was hitting me back but he was so tired by then they hits were nothing I couldn't handle, until he just grabbed me and was trying to get on top of me, and I felt like I was done for cause he was just locked on to me. he was slowly getting ontop of me, and I couldnt do nothing to stop it except for just jumping backwards on my back, crushing him. I did that, and my god it hurt A LOT. even though I wasn't the guy on the bottom, when I landed the wind got so badly knocked out of me I felt I was gonna pass out, and I couldn't breath. I slowly wriggled off of him, slowly catching my breath, and saw he was barely moving at all, and had weak coughs every few seconds. he was badly hurt, so I just got up and walked back into my yard and locked the gate and just lay there on the grass trying to catch my breath. I was there for a good 10 - 15 minutes laying on the grass, and then I got up checking to see if he was okay. I got out of my yard again and nobody was there, just a small pool of blood were the guy and me fell. did I win? I don't think anyone won this fight. but wow, my mom said I was gone from the house for about 20 minutes (she never knew I was in a fight lol) so the fight didn't last more then 5 or so minutes, but it fealt like it lasted an hour. wow, that was pretty painful though :/
