Answer 1

To retain the nuance of a couple fighting together as one, I would say "Tienen que luchar por si mismo."

Answer 2

Fight with one another in a physical, or argumentative way?

I'm not saying yours is wrong, because I'm not sure I understand if por cada uno is the right sense or not, but I'll throw out something that would have occurred to me.

Tienen que luchar el uno por el otro. Actually, maybe gender-wise, that doesn't work. And if you swap one end to feminine, then it sounds unidirectional instead of for each other.

OK, I don't know, but I'm curious now too. I"m going to wait with you and see.

in an argumentive way...i was trying to explain something to my girlfriend...as in "we have to fight for each other" or "they have to fight for each other" thanks rogspax - haroldredwine, Feb 9, 2013

Answer 3

Necesiten que defender el un por al otro

Answer 4

I'm not Spanish, but I'd translate that: Tienen que luchar (el uno) por el otro.

Answer 5

Deben luchar por unos a otros?

o

Debemos luchar por unos a otros?

Answer 6

Luchemos por nuestro amor??

Actually, I'm not sure what you want to say. Maybe you could give some context.
