Fighting Style
Gable Steveson fights as a striker. He is busy on his feet and lands cleanly, with accuracy well above most of the UFC. He is also hard to hit, though he still takes more shots than most fighters do.
The grappling side runs the other way. He rarely shoots for takedowns and doesn't hunt for submissions. When opponents take him down, he gets taken down more than most.
His one UFC win was a first-round knockout, and he has no submission wins in the UFC.
