Combat Confidential records a short post-fight interview with Daniel Kämpfer after his bout at Cage Legacy Fighting Championship 23. The host praises the fight as a back-and-forth war and possible fight of the night. Kämpfer says he was not fazed by an early textbook leg sweep after his opening kick, was confident in his grappling despite having only about three years of training against a far more experienced opponent, and chose the matchup to test himself. He describes feeling his opponent break under pressure and boxing, then winning by rear naked choke in the third round—on the buzzer, by his recollection—with a trail-hand grip, far-side hook, and belly-down finish. He mentions submission bonus money and plans to spend it on a holiday.
