Legal or illegal idea?(i got jumped) good topic!!!!!!?

OK so i have been thinking on a plan on getting back on this one kid and i go a very good one but first let me tell you what happened.

one day, him and his brother jumped me out of a car and attacked me. They broke my glasses but i wasn't seriously hurt just shaken up and chose not to fight back (i regret not fighting back).

-The reason why is on another date i went for a ride with him (and his brother) to purchase marijuana illegally and he ran off with with my money! So his brother (still in the car) told me he would drop me off home.

NOTE:Let me make my self clear i was enrage and probably more angry then i have ever been in my life. and i was going threw a time of depression and obesity (i was fat).

So on our way back to my house i had i knife in my pocket and was thinking whether or not to slit his throat from the back seat.Being religious i did not....Instead i slit up the nice leather seats in his SUV later to find it to be their moms (LOL).

-One week later they called me on my cell and threatened to "send me to the hospital"

-Two weeks later i was jumped

HEARS MY PLAN AND QUESTION-------- Is it legal to challenge the one kid to a fight?

The conditions would be if i win he has to pay $500+ in court (under contract).

And if i lose (unlikely) i simply drop the charges and let him go free.

WHERE I AM NOW: I am no longer fat, work out every day, and starting MMA(mixed martial arts) classes by next year

WHAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND: I am the victim of a battery crime. And i don't what to hear "well you should of not smoked pot and...etc" The point is i trusted this kid and we where friends and in the position i am in there is no going back to friendship

The on thing i can never forgive is being stabbed in the back by some one you trust......PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT AND FORWARD IF YOU CAN.

Update:

ok because people cant fully understand 100% of the story i am telling i dont need crap on MOVE ON or FORGET ABOUT IT because i CANT!!!!!! that's why i need to find out if my plan is LEGAL or NOT! And to Who ever asked me this happened last year and i lost 90+ pounds, im in the best shape of my life im 16 and this thing has been haunting me since the day it happened and if i cant find out if i can do this or not i will take this grudge to my grave. And i don't what to do that and live my life mentally scared!

Update 2:

and to the Retard Muse...THATS EXACTLY WHY I NEED TO FIND OUT IF ITS LEGAL OR ILLEGAL TO FIGHT!!!! and sooooooooooo far i havent goa answer from all TEN of you yahooers

can i fight or not? yes or no in the state of Florida?!

    It is illegal and the contract cannot be enforced. It is not legal to challenge a person to a fight and to fight. It is called an assault and/or battery. You cannot make a contract on a bet, especially when it comes to illegal terms such as fighting.

    "I am the victim of a battery crime"

    You are also the perpatrator of destruction of property and attempting to obtain a controlled substance.

    Lay off the weed consider yourself lucky you didn't get seriously injured when they attacked you.

    Solving one crime with another is STUPID.

    Their are people called therapists who will help you move on and forget about it. Taking any physical action against them is illegal making any wager on it is illegal, the outcome of that bet will not be held up in court if either party refuses to pay.You are a kid in 4 years this will mean nothing to you. You are under 18 so any contract you enter into is null and void because you are a kid. The assault was a year ago so their is absolutely zero legal recourse for you to take.

    NO! You can NOT legally assault another minor. You said you are into martial arts. Watch the Karate Kid do what Daniel did.

    Source(s): Yes I called you stupid.

    move on, honey, life is too short ... and thinking about slitting someones throat, you have just as much of a problem as those other kids do ... if they jumped you, you should have called the police ... and if they jumped you why would you go with them to buy pot ... you need to deal with your own issues, you seriously could benefit from some therapy ... you don't have to live angry and on guard, that gets old very quickly ... i hope you can find happiness ... and happiness is not being thin with the ability to beat another human being up !!!
