I saw three of those "fighting" by our butterfly bush today. I put fighting in quotes because they could've been mating, or playing for all I know. It didn't appear like a friendly exchange that lasted 3-4 minutes.

So I learned this is a Robber Fly. Look closely, he's eating a snack. He has claimed the Olive that recently came in. He's always on it.

I'd say the most disruptive bugs in my garden, just when I think I'm happy with a shape these bugs have a different plan.
Its a love hate relationship lol.
