This might seem silly, but the concept could vary according to the status of certain laws. As such, it'd have five separate levels. For example...

Arch-Conservative >> Colosseum - Involves fighting possibly more than one opponent and/or genetic monsters, unarmed or wielding melee weapons. Combat doesn't stop until one side is dead.
Conservative >> Extreme wrestling stadium - One-on-one unarmed fighting to the death. No genetic aberrations (except the mutant you might be able to sneak in!).
Moderate >> Boxing ring - One-on-one unarmed fighting that's generally stopped before one party dies.
Liberal >> Wrestling association - One-on-one unarmed fighting that's certainly stopped way before death. There's also an underground combat ring that works as the moderate-stage boxing ring.
Elite Liberal >> Nothing legal, but the underground fight club has grown harsher, and works under the rules of the conservative-stage extreme wrestling stadium.

Actually this is something I very much endorse... I think at elite liberal it can turn in some types of friendly sports stadium, but the idea is awesome.

For Elite Liberal, I'd imagine they'd have fully staged "fights", as a totally safe version of the Liberal Wrestling Association. The Elite Liberal Fight Choreography Center?

The fight club in Fight Club was pretty much not-about-money and was in many ways defined by just how not-about-money it was.

Until the end when it turned into a terrorist organization.

...

Wait a minute.

Arch-conservative policies should probably affect it so the contestants are child slaves fighting genetically altered animals with flamethrowers. At elite liberal it should be pretty tame wrestling that's completely unionized and enforces gender equality.

So, animal rights, labor laws, corporate law, gun control, women's rights, and human rights would all have effects.

[Deadmeat1471]

Deon is right. Remember Rome and the gladiators? It's in people's nature to be sadistic in that way.

In Rome it wasn't as much sadism as it was in dual proportion an ancient rite to the dead and a way of exercising and displaying their superiority as a class over the gladiators. But yeah, the basic principle is correct, people like conflict.

[Deon]

Just look at today Wrestling movement, which is mostly a show, but people still love to watch it because muscled guys and girls do nothing but swear and kick each other in hillarious ways .

Actually I would imagine a liberal fighting/wrestling show as some kind of a real "show", without contestants hurting each other, but playing for public.

Perhaps the Elite Liberal equivalent of a fight club would be Jerry Springer?

Under Elite Liberal society, the populace is encouraged to say anything, but to be non-violent.  So, fighting would probably be by insult.

[Angel Of Death]

I think the Elite Liberal fight club should be a battle of wits, not fists. In simplified words, I think it should be Liberals debating Liberal stuff.

I think it would be a little more like this.
