Wow what a cool video. Thanks for sharing this. What time of year was this? and was this a behavior related to any specific time of year?

Hey, don't you know the difference between rattlesnakes fighting and rattlesnakes mating? The reason it appears as if they are fighting is that they have been together as a couple for too many years...and divorce certainly is not an option!
