What is Mercutio's attitude toward love?
For Mercutio, love is an opportunity to make a dirty joke. It's all about the sex, and nothing more. We never hear Mercutio exhibit the slightest realization that women are human beings. As is the case with most such guys, there isn't a woman who would come within ten feet of him. Romeo is genuinely in love with Juliet. He cannot stand the idea of being apart from her. He is quite prepared, in his impractical romantic way, to sacrifice himself if she should ask for it. He is also prepared to offer cheer and hope when she seems down. Although he does not have the insight into Juliet's needs that a more sophisticated man might have, he is on the way. As Romeo pithily says about Mercutio: he jests at scars that never felt a wound.

Why does mercutio decide to fight Tybalt and save romeo?
Mercutio does not "save Romeo" in the play by fighting Tybalt. Tybalt is about to walk away in contempt of the coward Romeo who will not fight him, and Mercutio gets involved, ostensibly to save Romeo's honour but basically just to get into a scrap. In the 1996 Baz Luhrman movie, the director has Tybalt beating Romeo when he will not fight, which does prompt Mercutio to join the fight. In that version Mercutio thinks that Tybalt will kill Romeo and that he needs to intervene to save his life. It's a more flattering read for Mercutio than what Shakespeare wrote.
