Question:
Chuck Liddell passes random drug test given by the NSAC
UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell was forced to take a random drug test by the Nevada State Athletic Commission after his bizarre appearance on a Texas television morning talk show earlier this month.
And he passed.
That?s the word from today?s Los Angeles Times.
Liddell appeared on WFAA?s Good Morning Texas on March 1 to promote the movie, 300.
The UFC superstar was incoherent and nodding off during the interview. At one point, the interviewer, Gary Cogill, had to shake Liddell awake and ask if he was okay to continue the segment. (You can watch the clip on YouTube.)
The appearance prompted some UFC fans to wonder if the champ was perhaps drunk or on drugs. Liddell?s trainer came out soon after and said Liddell was simply sick, short on sleep, and tired from sleeping pills he had taken.
Concern over the incident prompted the NSAC to issue a drug test.
From the latimes.com (may require registration):
?I had pneumonia and a fever,? Liddell said.
The fighter said he was out late, then took the prescription sleeping pill Lunesta and an over-the-counter dose of Nyquil before waking early to make the television appearance, which can be viewed on YouTube.
?I needed six to eight hours of sleep and only got three,? Liddell said. ?They should?ve never got me out of bed.?
Following the rambling, often incoherent discussion, Liddell said he was ordered off the promotional road by UFC President Dana White, and was subsequently subjected to a random drug test by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Keith Kizer, executive officer of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, said Liddell passed the drug test.
?He?s been tested several times and has never ran afoul of our tests,? Kizer said. ?Chuck was in a weird state on that show. I don?t blame people for being concerned about him, but he silenced his critics.? www.ufcjunkie.com
chuck should punch the NSAC in the face.
It would now appear that Dana was correct in saying he been sick for awhile. I guess the Chuck we saw was a sick, legally drugged Chuck Liddell.
Chuck is a cokehead
chuck should punch the NSAC in the face. Why? They helped him prove that he wasnt on illegal drugs. He should kiss them on the mouth...actually, Dana should kiss them on the mouth.
chuck should punch the NSAC in the face. Why? Cause he seemed like he was stoned out of his mind?
Pththth....I don't have any problems with the random drug test and was wondering when it would happen after that interview.
Chuck is a cokehead Really? If this were true, don't you think it would have shown up on the test???
chuck should punch the NSAC in the face. LOL
Why? Cause he seemed like he was stoned out of his mind?
Pththth....I don't have any problems with the random drug test and was wondering when it would happen after that interview.
Really? If this were true, don't you think it would have shown up on the test??? no, it leaves your system in 2 days u dope.
he prolly wasnt partying for two days when they tested him.
know your facts jack
no, it leaves your system in 2 days u dope.
he prolly wasnt partying for two days when they tested him.
know your facts jack 1. If he's a "coke head", I doubt he goes more then a day without using (the "coke heads" I've seen don't)
2. Ah, while you are correct about coke only staying in your system for 2-3 days. Drug test don't normally test for Cocaine itself. They test for Benzoylecgonine, which is the metabolite that the drug produces when it is absorbed into the body. For a "coke head", benzoylecgonine can stay in the body for up to 30 days.
Those facts good enough for you....Jack?
:rolleyes:

:rolleyes: no.
im glad google gave u info like that.
but the drug is only gonna be detectable for 2-3 days. this benzo thing isnt illegal in your system.
and i know plenty of weekend warriors that I would still consider cokehead
u dummy
chuck just does not seem like a person that does drugs to me...but i can see him drinking
no. Uh, yes...
im glad google gave u info like that. Did I say I knew this off the top of my head? No. Yeah I googled it & found the same story on a couple of sites so what...lol.
but the drug is only gonna be detectable for 2-3 days. Yeah, I said the same thing...Cocaine is detectable for 2-3 days. Never argued that. :rolleyes:
this benzo thing isnt illegal in your system. "This benzo thing"? So I'm guessing you never heard of that either...and you googled it to find out what I was talking about. So much for your authority.
And if benzoylecgonine is NOT illegal "in your system" (lol....in your system....lol) then why would they test for it as a way to detect cocaine? That doesn't make much sense there, scooter.
And if I'm wrong, by all means I will apologize.
and i know plenty of weekend warriors that I would still consider cokehead Then that is a debate subject to opinion. I would consider a weekend only user a "casual" user. Now a "coke head" is someone who uses just about every day (my opinion) and the way people bring up Chuck being a "coke head" gives me the impression that he is a frequent user. Frequent enough to test positive for it.
But that's my opinion...I'm not asking you to agree on that because unless Chuck gives us info on how much he uses (if he uses) we'll never know.
u dummy And ya know what - I wouldn't of even gone into all of this if you would have made your original comment with out being a douche bag.
Take care.
wow strong over analyzing... and I know all about the benzo thing theory 0since im not a scientist I choose to call it the benzo thing- but i do know you wont fail a drug test if they detect it.
read about all the nfl players who test negative by not using for 3 days.
i dont care what theoretically shows that you have done a drug... im talking what gets you in trouble when u pee in the cup. these benzo things wont
edit - and no i didnt use google, I wouldnt google stuff about drug tests from work.
Here's some reading for you.
Let me know if you would like some more...
Some info lf what test show when you "pee in a cup"

There is a bit of misinformation out there and that is cocaine is out of your system in 2-3 days. Well while that might be true LABS DON'T TEST FOR THE DRUG ITSELF. Yes, that is true, they look for the metabolite. A metabolite is something that the body produces when it ingests something, in the case of cocaine it is "benzoylecgonine" that will stay around long after the drug is gone, up to 30 days for a frequent user. THE DRUG ITSELF can stay in your bloodstream up to 72 hours. It can stay in your urine for about 1 or up to 3 days after single use. Habitual or chronic use can be detected in urine for up to 12 weeks depending on quantity, duration, and frequency of use.
Cocain can stay in your hair up to about 90 days. But there are also information that cocaine can stay in your hair for about 25 years after you only take it once.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_test
Drug testing in the United States began in the late 1980s with the testing of certain federal employees and specified DOT regulated occupations. Drug testing guidelines and processes, in these areas exclusively, are established and regulated (by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration or SAMHSA, formerly under the direction of the National Institute on Drug Abuse or NIDA) require that companies who use professional drivers, specified safety sensitive transportation and/or oil and gas related occupations, and certain federal employers, test them for the presence of certain drugs. These test classes were established decades ago, and include five specific drug groups. They do not account for current drug usage patterns. For example, the tests do not include semi-synthetic opiods, such as oxycodone, oxymorphone, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, etc., compounds that are highly abused in America:
Cannabinoids (marijuana, hashish)
Cocaine (cocaine, benzoylecognine, cocaethylene)
Amphetamines (amphetamine, methamphetamine)
Opiates (heroin, opium, codeine, morphine)
Phencyclidine (PCP)

and stop getting your info from wikki and companies scaring paranoid drug users into buying their detox kits Then show me something proving your point.
Dude - I'm backing up what I've said....you're basically saying "cause I said so" or "I don't believe this"....crap, you said you weren't a chemist, so you DON'T really know...if you choose to believe it or not is up to you....but I'm backing up what I'm saying.
Like I said earlier...PLEASE prove me wrong and I will most certainly apologize....but why on earth would drug test check for Benzoylecgonine if it was not illegal?
Then show me something proving your point.

ok....take care.
FYI
I was just trying to prove you wrong. I was more curious in the beginning, but would not have even pursued this if you didn't act like a schmuck in your first response.
