Are there any countries where duelling or consenting to fight in the street is legal?

I am about to start the dissertation for my law degree and I am entitling it, "The Legality of Full Contact Sports". I want to illustrate why MMA, boxing, muay thai etc IS different to a street fight due to the rules in place etc. However, I want to show that the rules governing sports are often ignored RE Mike Tyson, Duncan Ferguson etc.





What I am looking for help with is.....





The law as it stands in other countries with regards to assault/ self defence/ duelling, i.e. does anyone know if duelling is still permitted in any other countries?





Any help at all would be great!

It's legal in America, when ever it happens they just file it under "self defense".
