I remember in 2018, after he won his first title, Sam Stoll grabbed the mic in the post-match presser and asked, "Spencer Lee, why are you the baddest man on the planet?"

ST. LOUIS, Mo. - Back in 2018, when Spencer Lee won his first NCAA title at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, former Iowa heavyweight Sam Stoll grabbed the microphone during the post-match press conference and asked one question:
"Spencer Lee, why are you the baddest man on the planet?"
Lee laughed.
"I don't know," he responded. "I don't have an answer for that. I'll take your word for it. How's that?"

The legend has only grown since then, and on Saturday night here at the Enterprise Center, Lee authored perhaps the most impressive chapter of his spectacular college career thus far.
