Tekashi 6ix9ine’s bodyguard has challenged the rapper’s attackers to a fight – with $10,000 up for grabs.
The rapper, real name Daniel Hernandez, was brutally attacked in the locker room of a Miami gym this week by three men, who were seen boasting about the attack on social media afterwards.
His three assailants branded Tekashi a “rat” who they won’t tolerate in their “hood” – and the rap star was later rushed to hospital via ambulance, with his attorney explaining he suffered “cuts to his face and bruises”.

The assault came five years after Tekashi testified against gang members after cutting a deal to lessen his own sentence after committing a range of crimes including armed robbery and attempted murder.
In court, he testified towards the workings of the gang he was a part of, stating: “We participated in a lot of crimes. Robberies, assaults, drugs.”
He served two years behind bars in 2018, with his sentence reduced from 47 years minimum.
Now Tekashi’s bodyguard has spoken out in a fiery Instagram message.
Bam-Bam, the Miami-based bodyguard, has offered $10,000 (£8,100) to go up against him, even offering to take them four against one.
The security boss threatened the goons: “If you lose… you die.”
He wrote on Instagram: “69 a grown man [and] he wanted to do cardio on his own. He be outside like that… I can’t control him… but to say I set him up… false allegations… something minorities used to… we be accused of nothing.”
Adding: “4 vs 1 y’all weak a** b*tches against me… you win I pay you $10,000 [and] if you lose you die… there will be no ref… claim it gangstas.”
He also appeared to clear Bullet Guzman, the man who many blamed for staging the attack, with Bam-Bam claiming he was not one of the men throwing “weak a** punches”.

It isn’t the only trouble the rap star has been in since his initial arrest. Last week, a source told Page Six that the rapper was thrown out of LoanDepot Park in Miami after causing a scene while “heavily intoxicated”.
The source claimed: “He was heavily intoxicated and interrupting other guests’ experience. He was drunk, he was inebriated and he was out of control.
“There were a lot of families there last night and he was bothering people.”
