I was not fought

Is it grammatically correct to say "I went to the meeting, stated my opinion and I was not fought" meaning that nobody disagreed with what I said?

'I was not challenged' might be more suitable. You could also say 'it was not fought' as it is the opinion that might be attacked rather than yourself. It sounds a little bit clumsy when phrased the way you have done, but is perfectly acceptable.
