TLS cipher strength diffs between nmap and SSL Labs

Hi - I used Qualys SSL Labs to test our company's website. The results are here at 
https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=www.invesco.com&hideResults=on.
It finds 12 ciphers used with only 2 being strong.


But when I use nmap to scan the site, all 12 ciphers are listed as strong.

Do you know whose resultst are more accurate?

Thanks!
Jerry
