How it's used
Beyond its literal meaning of hand-to-hand combat, this term is frequently used as a suggestive euphemism for sexual intercourse. The context usually makes the intended meaning clear, as it is rarely used to describe actual combat in modern daily life. When used in a non-sexual sense, it often implies a very intense or desperate struggle.
Examples
The two of them are fighting hand-to-hand on the street.
Are you guys trying to get into a physical fight?
