Mateusz Gamrot says Poland is cleaner, safer, and more modern than the US

Mateusz Gamrot stated in a podcast interview that Poland is cleaner, safer, more hospitable, and in many ways more modern than the United States. The UFC lightweight described Poland as entirely clean, safe, and contemporary despite governmental issues. He criticized American hospitality, recounting being invited to barbecues where he would have gone hungry without bringing his own food, contrasting this with Polish culture where guests are fed and treated well. Gamrot noted that Americans are often behind Poland technologically, citing an example of portable payment terminals arriving in US restaurants years after they were commonplace in Poland. He also described American social interactions as superficial and his children preferring home in Poland despite Florida's beaches and palm trees. While acknowledging career advantages in the US, Gamrot emphasized that life quality is not necessarily better there.
