TMZ is reporting that: Columbus Short shot this video to show his estranged wife was the violent one in this relationship ... and one thing's for sure -- she can be a real fighter.

Here's the back story ... Columbus was arrested for domestic violence for an incident at his house February 18 ... accused of beating his wife Tanee McCall (the woman on top in the video).

The next day -- after Columbus bailed out of jail -- he asked his friend Tilly Key to come to his house to pick him up.   We're told Tanee went ballistic when she saw Tilly in the house, and that's when Tanee attacked.
