Mercutio tries to provoke Tybalt because he despises his Fencing-school method of swordplay, and just plain dislikes him (just about everybody does except Lady Capulet). He provokes him by responding to Tybalt's request to have a word with Mercutio by asking him to couple it with a blow, and by wilfully misunderstanding Tybalt's use of the word "consort".
