Ancient history now but the first time i ever met Spencer was at some Toughman knockoff at the AG Center here in Asheville i think it was over 20 years ago. He was in the heavyweight division at the time just barely over the minimum weight. If you didn’t know about his background you would have thought he was gonna get killed going up against some of those muscled up monsters he did. He pretty much toyed with all of them and KO’ed a couple i think on his way to winning the tournament. He was a really cool and down to earth guy.
