Male kangaroos fight for dominance in their mob. There can be only one dominant male in each mob, and only this dominant male may mate with the females in the mob. Younger males will challenge the older 'alpha' male for his position, and the loser must leave the mob. Following this, he must either form his own mob or become the new dominant male in another mob.

Can kangaroos balance on their tales and kick you in the face?
No. Kangaroos engage in "boxing" as a territorial behaviour, and a way to establish the dominant male in a mob, but there is little value in them punching for protection as their short forelegs are not particularly strong. They will use their tails to balance, and deliver a powerful kick with their hind legs. Kangaroos tend to rely on their speed and endurance to escape from predators.
