"A teammate introduced him to Vicodin; he found the drug acted as a stimulant rather than as the depressant it is.
“I could always guess when he was up, because he was just bouncing around, hyper, talkative, and I was like, well, we’ll give it two hours, and the other Spencer will show up,” Emily says.
When he returned to the octagon, Spencer was never better. After another three rounds with Stout, he was clearly the winner. But even after that high, there was another crash of depression.
Meanwhile, his habit grew. At his peak, Spencer ate 30 five-milligram Vicodins a day, having gotten a script from a doctor."
It looks like he took a lot of damage in training because he was numbed by his drug abuse. Also, lots of fighters admit steroids can indirectly result in brain damage too, because they make you train more aggressively than you should. This needs to be stated better.
