Switch, Switch, Switch!

Did anybody catch this in the 3rd round where some guy is yelling advice to either Serra or Shonie. It went like this

"Now! SWITCH SWITCH SWITCH!"

and then another guy form the opposite corner yells

"He's not going to switch"
"Nice cornering there"

What does he meant to switch, I think serra had his shonies back or half guard or something, and did I miss a really funny moment?

I think the fight was bullshit. When Cote said he is not going to switch the guy that said to switch started cracking up. Everybody in the house wanted Shoni to lose even his own corner.

agreed, because a switch works in wrestling, but when your opponent can go for submissions, attempting a switch is a really bad idea.

A switch is a wrestling move you can use when an opponent has your back. You simply sit out and reach back for a leg. Randy Couture used it all the time.
