Combat Rewind, April 13: Vintage violence from ‘Bad Mofo JoJo,’ an illegal knee for the ages

Check out the best highlights from this day in history with MMA Junkie’s “Combat Rewind.”

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.

Among today’s gems is a finish from current UFC contender Joanne Calderwood before she dropped the “Bad Mofo JoJo” moniker, a vicious illegal knee at Alaska Fighting Championship, an early bout from women’s MMA pioneer Tara Larosa and a “2Tap” liver shot.
