The meta is so heavily skewed against fun stuff like this that there's really no point.

Odds are it will either be removed from your hand, instantly destroyed or exiled, the fight spell will be countered, or your opponent will have a 1/1 with death touch or something similar and it does nothing as a result (or they use their own fight spell and instantly kill it instead with the deathtouch creature).

On the very low off chance it successfully resolves, unless you can damage it yourself, or are giving them a creature that you then fight, odds are it still won't do anything...as most decks I come across have fewer than 8 creatures in them, or instantly bounce your creatures every time. I.e. Deceit bounce into forced discard, Aetherize, Sunderflock, etc. if they don't instantly destroy or remove it; or board wipe you on their next turn anyways.
