Could my situation have been avoided? If so how?

I was recently leaving the bar. I think I have ok situational awareness I passed 3 guys on the way to talking to a girl in the street. None of which were a threat. Next thing you know as I’m talking to a girl (in public) I’m attacked. First hit was clean cut to my jaw. Not sure why this happened, but it was random. How can something like this be avoided. My thing is I’ve heard so far “have better situational awareness”, but I don’t have eyes in the back of my head. He literally came from behind
