It probably reduces the occurrences. Much like how a law against cell phone use whilst driving has reduced incidences, but no one is thick enough to think it's an outright failure for having not eliminated it entirely.
I'm on the fence; on one hand, fighting flies in the face of eliminating hits to the head and addressing the concussion problem in contact sports. On the other, the players themselves are against the removal of fighting. Owners must be torn, as fighting in the game purports to both protect and harm their investments depending on which way you look at it.
