Mateusz Gamrot says Poland is cleaner and safer than United States

Mateusz Gamrot stated that his extensive world travels have increased his appreciation for Poland, which he describes as cleaner, safer, more hospitable, and in many ways more modern than the United States. The UFC lightweight cited examples such as Poland having portable payment terminals in restaurants a decade before they became common in America. Gamrot criticized American hospitality, recounting instances where he was invited to barbecues but would have gone hungry without bringing his own food, contrasting this with Polish generosity. He also described American social interactions as superficial, noting the scripted nature of casual greetings. While acknowledging advantages for sports careers in the US, Gamrot suggested that quality of life is not necessarily better there, with his children even preferring to return home to Poland despite being on a Florida beach.
