I believe the answer is:

grapple

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fight' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'ridiculously large over 2p?' is the wordplay.
'ridiculously' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'over' indicates putting letters inside.
'pp?' becomes 'pp' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'large' anagrammed gives 'grale'.
'grale' going around 'pp' is 'GRAPPLE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for grapple that I've seen before include "Lay hold of" , "Engage closely with" , "Engage in close fighting" , "Wrestle mentally (with)" , "struggle" .)
