I know that this has been posted about 1,000,000 times but positional dominance alone should not be enough to win a round. Round's 2 and 3 Kampmann did the only damage. Shields definitely controlled the rounds on the floor, but he didn't do anything to hurt Kampmann or stop the fight, and majority of the time kampmann was able to hip escape and land a few good knee's and some stiff jabs. Was it anything amazing? Not really, but he definitely did more damage during that fight then Shields did. At least one judge saw that and scored it for Martin. Good call.
And I'm not one of these guys that hates a good grappling match, b/c in fact i'm the opposite. But doing nothing but passing guard shouldn't be enough to win a round.
