Petroski key quotes, UFC Fight Night 293

“When you first get into the UFC, it's that shiny new toy and it's like, ‘Man, this is awesome.

I'm living my dream.’ Then some point along the way, it becomes a job. I had to get back to the point where I was like, ‘What do I love about this?’ and finding what I love about it. The part of fighting that gives me the most joy is solving the puzzles. You’ve got a problem in front of you, and what's the best way to solve it. When I get back to that approach to fighting, I do love it.”

“There's a lot of names that I'm interested in – a lot of good grapplers, a lot of good strikers. I think I'm dangerous for a lot of guys. I've shown that I can outgrapple the strikers and I've shown that I can outstrike the grapplers. What makes fighting me tough is I determine where the fight goes. … I’ve got nothing in mind right now (for an opponent), but we'll see.”

“I would love to get on an RAF card before I fight again. That's what I would really love to do and continue to develop my wrestling and then fight again in early '27. They had reached out before – they offered me Bo Nickal, and then they went with Yoel Romero, instead, and that fell through. We just never got something set up again. But I would love to. Call me whenever.”
