You COULD opt to take the other road, which if you don't want to fight, and sense that your "friend" really wants to fight, you could talk to a teacher or principal. By LAW in Michigan, they're supposed to report any criminal activity by the students. You could say that he is harassing you, picking/ messing around with you, and you think he's going to assault you. By the end of that discussion, you will have already won without a punch.
If you choose option two, don't worry about looking like a pansy or anything. The teacher(s)/ principal will word it like, "a concerned friend of Arto's/ Arturo's (w/e) has come to us because they sense hostility between you two." -> something like that.
Last option - take a 2-3 hour south-eastern drive to my place and introduce me to him
