Toe to toe?

This is why a face-to-face fight is also known as a toe-to-toe matchup.

In other words, it’s a direct confrontation.

Metaphorically speaking, any face-to-face matchup can be described as such, be it a fight between a man and another man (or for that matter a kangaroo), or a fight or argument between two politicians, two thieves or two bank managers.

Or anyone else.

And here, a few recent examples:

1. President-elect Donald Trump has tweeted his encouragement to a pro-Trump biker group that says it is ready to provide a ‘wall of meat’ to contend with anti-Trump protesters, as supporters and protesters prepare to stream into Washington for his inauguration.

With more than 5,000 ‘Bikers for Trump’ ready to descend on Washington, Trump tipped his hat to the group as he said people were coming to D.C. in ‘record numbers’ to watch him take the oath of office.

‘People are pouring into Washington in record numbers. Bikers for Trump are on their way. It will be a great Thursday, Friday and Saturday!’ Trump wrote.

Chris Cox, 48, is organizing what he hopes will be a sizable rally for America's pro-Trump bikers, complete with musical performances and speakers - and he says the bikers will have another purpose.

‘In the event that we are needed, we will form a wall of meat,’ he told Fox & Friends Saturday, adding that while the group is non-violent, they would stand up to any dangerous protesters.
