When a young man tried to shoplift from Enson Inoue ’s store, he clearly had no idea who he was messing with. Inoue, a former Shooto heavyweight champion and UFC and PRIDE veteran, has thrown down with some of the most notable names in the sport, including Randy Couture and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira. Now retired, the Hawaii native owns a Honolulu store, Destiny Forever LLC, which sells custom-made jewelry.

There’s “Flashback Friday” and “Throwback Thursday” (and Tuesday, too, if you want). But at MMA Junkie, we figured why not expand that to every day? “Combat Rewind” brings you some of combat sports’ best highlights from every calendar day of the year. It’s a look back at history, courtesy of the UFC Fight Pass archives, featuring stellar finishes and classic moments in MMA and beyond on their anniversaries. Today’s highlight include some amazing footage from Vale Tudo Japan 1995, including a fantastic submission from MMA legend Enson Inoue, as well as three victories in a single night from the undefeated jiu-jitsu master many believe was the greatest talent of his family, Rickson Gracie.

Gallery Khabib Nurmagomedov def. Conor McGregor at UFC 229: Best photos view 15 images Enson Inoue Enson Inoue has been in just one fight the past 14 years, but he still remembers clearly what it was like to be standing across from another man in a fist fight. And because of that, Inoue has an interesting take on the emotion behind the UFC 229 post-fight brawl that happened after Khabib Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC) submitted Conor McGregor (21-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC). “I enjoyed (the fight), and then after he won, I kind of thought Conor deserved something after the way he trash-talked – it was a little overboard,” Inoue recently told MMAjunkie Radio. “So when Khabib kind of pushed on his head, I thought, ‘Perfect!’” But then seconds later, Nurmagomedov jumped the fence, went after McGregor’s teammate Dillon Danis, and all hell broke loose. “Then he jumps out of the octagon, I was like, ‘Oh, no,’” Inoue said
