It seems contradictory until you realize that people can't just walk away from Garen because it puts them at a disadvantage in positioning, it'll scatter the enemy team. Therefore, Garen is like the punch you can't avoid, and if you even try to CC him, he'll make you regret it.

This is also why you buy Youmuu's Ghostblade, the active is virtually invaluable.
