22.Nxd7+!!
Exchanging his nice knight for Petrosian's bad bishop, and received a technically winning position. After this exchange, Fischer takes control of the open c-file, and this consideration is more important than the superiority of the knight on c5 over the bishop on d7. In positions with a superior pawn structure, the exchange of pieces increases your advantage. The game ended quickly:
22...Rxd7 23.Rc1 Rd6 24.Rc7 Nd7 25.Re2 g6 26.Kf2 h5 27.f4 h4 28.Kf3 f5 29.Ke3 d4+ 30.Kd2 Nb6 31.Ree7 Nd5 32.Rf7+ Ke8 33.Rb7 Nxb4 34.Bc4
