Godinez caught the foot before he pushed Polastri into the air and hit her to the octagonal floor.
“Powerbomb,” UFC commentator Daniel Cormier shouted the microphone. “That was a Powerbomb through Loopy. I love that.

“Godinez catches the leg,” he said. “Most people would lead her to the Octagon, but not if you're psycho sid. She goes up and she goes to the big slam.
“Let it run, boys. Up and boom with the Psycho Sid Powerbomb. That is so crazy!
“I haven't seen that in the Octagon for a long time.”
