Tyson Beckford got into a late night fight with DJ Ruckus over Victoria's Secret model Shanina Shaik on Thurday.

The brawl between the former friends happened outside the Up & Down nightclub in Manhattan, New York, according to TMZ.

Tyson, a former Ralph Lauren model, dated the beautiful 25-year-old on and off since 2008. 

But the couple finally called time on their relationship last year.

And Tyson wasn't best pleased when she and DJ Ruckus, who has a residency at Hakkasan Las Vegas, got with his ex just a couple of months later. 

Apparently bad feeling had been growing between the two and it surfaced when they bumped into one another at the nightclub.

A slanging match erupted with the 32-year-old DJ flipping off the 45-year-old model turned actor, sources told TMZ, and they took it out to the street.

The website reported that the fight was violent and bloody, with Tyson on top of Ruckus beating him up as one of the DJ's friends began punching Tyson in the head.

A doorman called the cops but by the time they got there the men were gone and no arrests were made.

Shanina and Tyson met on the set of Australia's Make Me A Supermodel in which she was a contestant and he was the host as well as a judge and mentor.

Meanwhile, Tyson really doesn't have a hope of winning back his former flame, according to Page Six.

Shanina and Ruckus, whose real name is Gregory Andrew, are now planning their wedding after getting engaged during a romantic holiday in the Maldives in January.
