There are few things I hate worse than having neighbors fight like cats and dogs, then taking their fight outside for the whole world to hear. My wife and I are pretty quiet, we want to stay on good terms with our neighbors, but above all, we want to mind our own business. She's a shrieker, and you can hear her halfway down the street! I don't care if they want to fight, just take it indoors and shut the windows! I don't want to know their, or anyone else's, business! 
Rant over. I feel a bit better now!

If it gets really out of hand, you could call the police due to domestic disturbance. there could be drugs and/or alcohol involved.
I had a guitarist (lets not call him a friend) and his nutzo girlfriend stay over at my band-house one night a few years back, and they got into such a crazy fight at 6am from drinking and doing cocaine all night that she was SCREAMING her head off and the cops came and hauled them both off. they were FRANTIC and uncontrollable.

If they want to fight indoors with the windows closed then that's fine by me. I just don't want to hear any details. What's really sad is that they have a couple of young children who unfortunately get to hear all their crap. Seems some couples just plain don't care who's around when they fight.
I think that next time if they ratchet it up really bad I might give the police an anonymous call.

You should offer both of them a High 5 and tell them it sounded like a job well done!

That’s some good advice right there! Humiliation/Embarrassment is a good deterrent for this sort of thing.
