Wow: Meet the Woman Tyson Beckford Got Violent For

DJ Ruckus is caught up in the drama.

Male supermodel Tyson Beckford recently got into a brawl with DJ Ruckus over — you guessed it — a woman. Apparently the two men have had it out for one another for some time, with this lady being the center of their beef. Find out who she is below.

According to TMZ, the lady who has Tyson and Ruckus fighting for her attention is model Shanina Shaik. She dated Tyson first, while he was friends with Ruckus, but after they broke up, the DJ hooked up with her, defying the long-standing bro code. Things got even messier when Tyson maintained his friendship with Shanina following their split, which didn't sit well with DJ Ruckus.

Things hit the fan when the two fellas saw one another at Up & Down nightclub in New York City, with Ruckus kicking things off by flipping off Tyson, who decided to then go over to him and tell him if they had beef, they should "take it out in the street." And that seems to be exactly what went down.

The brawl is said to have gotten pretty violent, with Tyson ending up on top of Ruckus throwing punches. One of Ruckus's friends allegedly then got involved, pounding the model in the head. Ruckus then went for the low blow, punching Tyson in the groin, to which the model returned the favor with a thrust of his knee.

While it is reported that a doorman called the cops, by the time they arrived, all three men left the scene. No arrests were made.
