If they are not neutered, get them neutered. Make sure you are exercising them enough as well. Dogs tend to act out when they do not have enough exercise. Your dogs probably need more training as well. Pit Bulls need very firm and consistent training. They need to know your the boss and that what they are doing is not acceptable.

Males sometimes get really dominant around other males. Keep them separate when you're not home and make sure they know you are in charge at all times. Feed them separately, walk them separately, and make sure you give them equal attention. If the fights are really bad I would see if you can find somewhere one of them can stay. If they are minor fights they might grow out of it.
How old are they? When did they start fighting? Do you notice any patterns or know the reason why? Sometimes there is nothing you can do, but don't give up before seeking a professional.
P.S. Don't listen to these other people. All dogs are different you just happen to have two very dominant dogs. I have a pitbull (male) and 6 other dogs (4 males) and they get along fine.

If they're intact, get them an appointment to be neutered. 'Cause if they're not, it's only adding to your problem.
You need to keep them seperated. There's really nothing you can do. Only let them be together under close supervision. Sometimes a dog will form an opinion of a fellow dog, and that's that. There's no changing it.
Another option, though painful, may be to find a good home for one of them. One where you know they're the only dog in the home, where they'll be cared for, and the people going to take him on know how to handle this breed. Or talk to their breeder, better yet. They'd proably give you a couple of homes looking for a pitti or take him back on.
You need to take the dogs' happiness into consideration, and they can't be very happy at this point.

They are aggressive breed of dogs and that fighting in already bred in them.They maybe fighting each other and maybe they are learning to know what fighting is.Some day it will be someones dog or a person and worse yet a child. You should only had the one.But since you have two and you already let them fight around in playing, now they do it for real.So you are the one who is at fault. Even if you got rid of one dog, you already ruin them.Put them in separate pens that are proper shelter and just make them comfortable. Take one out at a time and get it some exercise .And pray they never get loose.

Well since they're both male I can assume you're not planning on breeding them. I'd say your best bet would be to get them neutered. That should help to cut down on their aggresive behavior and is much healthier for them. If it still keeps up you may have to keep them separated permanently in otherwords one gets one side of the house and one gets the other.

Anthony H (or whatever your name is...) you are so full of ****, it stinks in here... how can you say something like that????? i know pits are known for being aggressive but this poor lady is after a REAL answer dude.... i would probably say that it is gonna be very hard for 2 guys to peace down so i would probably suggest to tell them off when they do and praise them as much as you can when they are not fighting.... ANY KIND OF MALE DOG FIGHTS WITH ANOTHER MALE WHEN IT COMES TO DEFEND HIS TERRITORY!!!

You won't get them to stop. Pit bulls have been bred for centuries to be dog-aggressive, and it's irrevocably in their genes. This is something that pit bull owners need to know before they get their dog. You need to keep the dogs separated & only let them be together when closely supervised so they don't injure each other and don't reinforce their dog aggression so that it occurs with other dogs as well.

Pitbull dogs are fighting dogs. That trait is bred in them.

You may have to separate them perminently. They are trying to establish themselves as the Alpha male.
