【Brawl】 , 【broil】 , 【fracas】 , 【melee】 , 【row】 , 【rumpus】 , 【scrap】  are comparable when meaning a noisy fight or quarrel.

【Brawl】 implies angry contentions, blows, and a noisy racket; it usually suggests participation by several persons.

【Broil】 stresses disorder, confusion, and turmoil among the combatants more than the disturbance they cause others. The term may be used contemptuously in place of war, conflict, or controversy, but it is more often used of a violent fight or quarrel where the issues are not clear or significant or where the opposing parties are not clearly distinguished.

【Fracas】 is applicable to a noisy quarrel or excited disturbance whether leading to blows or not; the term does not suggest as much vulgarity or as many participants as 【brawl】 , but it may imply as much noise and excitement.

【Melee】 is applied to a more or less disorganized hand-to-hand conflict or to a dispute which resembles such a combat. In many instances the emphasis is so strongly on confusion and mix-up that the implication of combat or contention is weakened or lost.

【Row】 is applicable to a demonstration or fight, whether a quarrel, a squabble, or a dispute, that is so public or so noisy as to attract attention.

【Rumpus】 suggests even greater agitation and disturbance than 【row】 , for it usually connotes an uproar.

【Scrap】 usually suggests a physical tussle but often implies little more than a noisy, sharp quarrel.
