Fyffe alleges the song was not only used without a license but also credited him in the post\u2019s caption, misleading viewers into thinking he had endorsed the video.<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit accuses Tyson of copyright infringement and false designation of origin. Fyffe says the unauthorized use of the track, which he co-produced with Jay-Z, DMX and Ja Rule, created confusion about his involvement in the fight\u2019s promotion.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><d class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><br \/>\n<d class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jay-Z - Murdergram (Feat.
