"Come close to blows" có từ blow là cú đánh đòn -> cụm từ này nghĩa là suýt nữa thì lao vào đánh nhau/dùng vũ lực với nhau.
Ví dụ
Walters went on to give a detailed (chi tiết) account of an incident (vụ việc) in Keane’s office at Ipswich which had seen them come close to blows after the striker had demanded (yêu cầu) to leave the club.
The battle of the thermostat (máy chỉnh nhiệt) is heating up. You may have come close to blows with someone in your house over where to set the temperature. The federal Energy Star program recently put out some new recommendations, and not everyone is staying cool-headed (giữ cái đầu lạnh) about it.
The pair had come close to blows in both of the previous two games between the teams, but they were separated (tách rời) by linesmen each time, once as Wilson threw up his gloves (găng tay) theatrically (điệu bộ). With three games in two weeks between the teams, the duel had a sense of inevitability (không thể tránh được).
