1: Kenny ducks under Pedro’s jab so he can shoot for a double-leg.
2: Kenny drives under Pedro’s hips and grabs behind both knees.
3: Instead of pushing forward for the takedown, Kenny drives up and under to take Pedro’s weight into his right shoulder and lifts him.
4: Sliding back his right foot and twisting his torso in one movement, Kenny dumps Pedro onto the canvas.
