I can't figure out what exactly Lawler did wrong here aside from just everything. His 3 landed shots did literally no damage, which leads me to believe Kampmann's dodging and footwork is what did him in. But getting no damage off of 3 landed strikes is unacceptable too, when you are a power striker like Lawler.

I can't figure out what exactly Lawler did wrong here aside from just everything. His 3 landed shots did literally no damage, which leads me to believe Kampmann's dodging and footwork is what did him in. But getting no damage off of 3 landed strikes is unacceptable too, when you are a power striker like Lawler.
