This,
Johnny Hendricks is a 2x national, wrestled when he was a little kid. His dad coached/pushed him, made him do insane amount of pushups, etc.
That foundation is incredible and has made Hendricks wrestling formidable. Versus, GSP who probably started wrestling in his 20s.
I was more surprised that GSP held up decently against Hendricks. So props to GSP, that just shows you how hard he trained for the UFC.
