Swedish speakers - how do you say "Fight!" as a command in Swedish?

If you wanted to say to someone 'Fight!", as if you were ordering them to do so, what word would you use?

Thanks!

    As usual, depends on the context. We don't use it in the say way as in English, and can't always be translated into a single word.

    If you say fight in the beginning of e.g boxing then it's NOT bekämpa. It's more of "Kämpa", "Kämpa på" or "Slåss".

    Bekämpa is only used if you in the army talk about fighting against the enemey (and it's in that case very close to "kill") or when you are talking about exterminating bugs or weed.
