I don't find it that way. Taking Street Fighter II for example, it is so easy to do Ryu's special attacks using a D-pad, yet using the keyboard makes it so difficult that my attacks turn out as something different than what I intend on doing which usually results in getting a gameover.

More over, most 2D fighting games do not consist of just 1-2 buttons. The least to say, games like Sengoku Basara X and Guilty Gear X consist of many more button presses; a keyboard is possibly the worse idea. However, that is irrelevant to the point of making more fighting games on the pc by game makers considering that there are tons of pc controllers out there, as well as adapters that enable the use of console controllers on the pc.
