2. The Level-Change Bait: Keita's rapid dip triggers Naimov's instinctive counter straight, committing weight onto the front leg with head static on the centerline.
3. Inside Angle Slip: Keita slips his head 4.5 inches off-line while turning over a tight counter hook that impacts behind the ear, causing immediate equilibrium collapse.
