Bernie “The Bruiser” Madoff got into a prison-yard tussle with a fellow inmate over—of all things—the stock market, eyewitnesses told The Post.
And, by inmates’ accounts, the 71-year-old Ponzi schemer came out the winner.
Madoff, serving 150 years at the Butner, NC, federal prison, was heard last week getting into a heated debate over the state of the market with another senior-citizen jailbird.
The shouting match got so heated that the inmate pushed Madoff, who shoved back harder with both hands, causing his attacker to stumble.

The stunned attacker went chicken and took off—allowing Madoff to collect some “cred” among his fellow prisoners.
Fortunately for Bernie, the brawl was nothing like this one…
