Yeah it's clear that when he copies someone's strength that's where his new base is. Otherwise why would he want to make Saitama bring out his full strength if all it does is make him temporarily stronger. Also he's able to, without copying Saitama, trade blows with him.Garou does indeed retain the power from what he copies
for example, he clearly retains techniques like the blast portals, but more importantly he takes serious punches left and right despite saitama's AD
also yeah the graph doesn't show him going down, it seems that he just retains the strength he copies
which is why he didn't have enough strength to take the zero punch since at that point he had only copied consecutive normal punches and then did the gamma ray burst
in other words Garou copies ultra instinct's mftl+ value and then speed blitzes goku with AD

Also, when he makes it back to Earth, he tanks a shot from Saitama while not in Saitama mode, while getting 1 shot when that same Saitama hits him at the start of the fight.
