Avoid it unless there is no other option and he attacks you. Show that you are the better man through self discipline.

Save this question in a file you can look at in 10 years.
When you do you'll realize that this was one of the craziest things you ever asked. If you have to ask a group of people you don't know if you should fight someone, than the chances are you already know the answer. If you win or lose is not important, what if one of you gets seriously hurt?
Bottom line - don't do it, there is to much trouble for somthing you could avoid all together.

Let him talk, he's just tryin to get you to fight, avoid it until you can't anymore and he keeps getting in your face and won't let you leave.
You've got nothing to prove to him or anybody, if he calls you names that's all they are names, all he's doing is showing how little intelligence he has.
just let him make the first move, if he swings block or move and give him a good hard strike in the groin, or solar plexus, but make sure that you have your hands up in a non threatning manner (open palms facing him) if it goes to fighting, if there are witnesses, they are likely to say who swung first and who was the agressor of the fight, which if he swings first, it'll look better on your part, once he swings, it's full on game time.
I was in a similar situation in a club, another guy wanted to fight me, I held my hands up in a non threatening manner (open palms, facing him) told him as loud as possible that I wasn't looking for a fight or had beef with him, making sure that other people within earshot could hear me.
when the cops questioned us and the bystanders later, the bystanders agreed more that he started the fight, and they put him in the cruiser, and let me off with a warning.
So it's better to avoid the fight as much as possible, like spidertiger said, it's a maturity thing, and that I'm also disgusted at how this guy who claims he's a black belt is so quick to fight, somebody needs to cut the sugar out of his mornin cheerios.

Avoid the fight.
When two tigers fight one will die and the other will be wounded for life.
If it comes down to not being able to avoid a situation please fight as if your life is on the line.
It angers me that a "black belt" in karate is goating another person to fight. This goes against our fundamental ni-ju koon.
I am assuming you are in high school. I would bot be too scared of his "black belt" since he is a young punk. You should not be at black belt level until you are at least 18. There is a maturity issue.
Perhaps you should call his sensei, if he was one of our students behaving that way we would have to "hammer in the nail". Also, talk to your teacher, get his take on the situation.

That doesn't sound like reason enough to fight to me... it sounds very immature.
May I tell you a story? I once opened the swimming pool at the college where I was a student AND teacher of swimming and Gymnastics and a few other things. There was another short guy like me who was always trying to start fights with me; he'd insult me or make rude comments and I'd ignore it. One day he refused to come out of the swimming pool unless I was man enough to get him out. A friend of mine came along and asked him to please leave. He left. I went and had coffee. He went to work out with weights to prepare for his Martial Arts class the following hour; he was always bragging that he was a Brown Belt. When he went to his Martial Arts class he saw me handing out papers and he was making all sorts of remarks and giving me dirty looks because he thought I was also taking the class... until he heard me introduce myself as the Instructor for the semester. He picked up his belongings and left. He never bothered me again and he finally realized why I ignored him!
Can you ignore someone who's not worth getting in trouble over? Surely you know that when you fight with an idiot, someone passing by cannot tell the difference...! What will fighting prove?
Listen, you don't have to prove anything to him, nor to yourself for that matter. Leave it alone. Let him think whatever he wants. YOU cannot force him to think anything. Leave it alone.
To know how to fight doesn't mean you HAVE to fight; it means that you should know how to avoid fights. Show respect. Show humility. Show responsibility. Show maturity. Do NOT dishonor yourself!

It's always better to avoid a fight than it is to get the big head and scrap for no real reason.
Fight for life, talk and save pride and hard feelings for ego alone.
If you guys throw down, it'll cause even more tension and stupidity most likely on his part.....he'll have a wounded ego to mend.
Turn the other cheek, it makes you more of a man to do so.
But, if he throws a punch, lay him out....as it should be.
Be a stand up guy, and do what you know's right....but if he REALLY wants it, give it.

Any true black belt knows to avoid a confrontation. Did his parents buy his black belt or did he just order one from a catalog? Did you ever hear of sticks n stones. But by all means if he should physically harm you, give him all you've got.

you should always try to avoid a fight but if you must fight win. i have found in life that bullies are often wimps. but ignore the name calling if you do then he will get tired and see that it doesn't work and unless he's sick he will leave you alone

Talk to your Master, let him know what is going on. Not good to fight with people in your school. Its not good for everyone else to see.

you could fight to the death or forget about it, i suggest you forget about the fight, fighting brings out horrible feelings from the guts. is there a jealousy thing going on between you. just have a quiet word tell him to shut his mouth up, after you graduate you wont have to set eyes on him again.
