I don't think it's Tiff, which, typically, is between friends, and I feel the same about Quarrel, which is usually between people who are on relatively good terms with each other. Typically a Dispute BECOMES a Brawls, which are usually what a very heated argument becomes, but I'd have to go with Brawl.
