Is it illegal to handcuff someone if they did something wrong such as starting a fight or thieving and you are not the police?

Yes. If they are not the police then they have no legal right to handcuff you.
Added: While the above is 'generally' a true statement, it is not 100% true in all circumstances. For instance: store security personnel - security guards assigned to protect a specific property - etc, CAN restrain you in some manner if you are resisting their authority, or they believe you may assault them, while you await the arrival of sworn law enforcement officers (i.e.: the "real" police).
