Note
The fighting and tipping uses are both casual, and each has its own shape. Rivals duked it out, with it standing for the fight and out saying it ran its course. The tipping use is slang and takes two objects, the person before the cash: he duked the doorman a twenty. The stately meaning, ruling as a duke, sits beside them, so context does the sorting.
