I found these two Long-jawed Orb Web spiders, building webs near each other, over our fishpond. While trying to catch a couple of macro shots of them, one suddenly ran over to the other and a tussle ensued. According to Google, this can either be fighting or mating behavior, but since they seem to both be male, I assume they were fighting. The whole thing was over in a few seconds and neither seemed to be any worse for wear.
