Lets forget the permanent turtle neck and the smug attitude.
This guy has legit knockout power, wrestling background, speed and athleticism and on top of that he trains with Faber who is very familiar with Cruz and has dropped him on a few occasions for the record.
A lot of people claimed that Thomas Almeida would run through him as well.. and what happened?
Cruz has a very unique and effective defensive fighting style, but he is still hittable and every fighter has certain tendencies. There is alot more footage on Cruz to study on than there is on Garbrandt. Cruz might also underestimate him based off on his attitude, which has been the downfall of many great fighters. I don't think that he is, but he might be, just like a lot of people in here do.
Garbrandt also has boxing background, so he knows the basics better and will avoid over extending and therefore will avoid giving Cruz the ability to get a takedown on him.
