Thats ridiculous

sucks 4 Cale, all that traning and no fight!he had family there friends watching he has to be on the July 19th!!

It sucks just as much for Tim, he trained just as hard and also had family and friends there.

Odd. At least there will be no punishment handed down to him.

Medically it doesn’t make sense for the athletic commissions to forbid the use of stimulants prescribed for treatment of ADHD. CNS stimulants act differently on the CNS’ of ADHD sufferers than they do on us regular folk. They actually take the user down a notch rather than jacking them up one or two. Besides, the stimulants found in adderall are quite powerful, but “trace amounts” probably stacks up to no more than the caffeine in a sip of coffee. Should the commissions ban caffeine, too? After all, CNS stimulants act almost exactly the same across the board, be they from cocaine, ADHD meds or a pepsi; it’s merely the volume and delivery mechanisms that differ.

I don’t understand how the phrases “cardio-vascular restrictor” and “performing enhancing” can be used in the same description?

one thing is important, Tim proves he’s a class act. He reported the use of drugs and ultimately did not go out and fight in shame. Tim and cale will have their fight another day.

Adderall is an amphetamine. If I fought in the UFC I’d take it because it seriously does have a performance enhancing effect.

If this drug was prescribed to him by a physician…than Tim knew, his fight team knew, and no doubt that the UFC knew that this drug was in his system and that it could interfer with his pre-fight drug tests.

I’m sure they did drug testing for the fights shown on the TUF show, so, Tim knew what he had to do to cycle this stuff out of his system.

I liken it more to a fighter not making weight.

If it is a personal medical condition documented and treated, I cannot believe the NSAC intervenes. Finally they use good judgment by not sanctioning or fining this guy.

so? Diaz can smoke weed for ADD, but Credeur can’t take adderall?

He might have used it when he fought CB, he wasnt gassed right away in that fight. Just a thought.

Who cares this guy is a looser

I personally know Tim Credeur. I am from Baton Rouge, LA and he has trained with some of my friends and myself and also sparred with some of my friends. He is a really good dude in real life you all. He would not be using adderall for anything else then to suppress or help with his ADHD. Believe me, Tim takes fighting seriously. No doubt about it. I also heard from some of his friends that he openly admitted before the drug test when asked if he was on any medication that he was on adderall and also had documentation from doctors stating the reason for it. He was also taking the medication before the show (not sure whether he actually took it on the show though). After openly admitting to taking it medically his drug tests proved what he said but only showed very, very trace amounts of the drug. Proving in fact that he was taking it medically because of how little he had in his system because it is used to suppress the hyperactivity in his body. Another words it burns off quickly in his body because he actually needs it and is not abusing it.

Just thought I would let you all know what actually happened because sometimes these reports are not always very accurate and sometimes leave out important details. Tim is really a good guy who loves fighting and competing whole heartedly. But, I was also told that there has been no word so far to him about the UFC asking him back and that he and his family were waiting on a POSSIBLE call from the UFC. We are all hoping that he does make it in the UFC because like I said he has trained hard as long as we have known him and is truly dedicated to doing this….. Anthony

Poor Tim. I really liked him. I hope he gets another shot.

This is almost too duhm to ask because it’s NOT a common name. But is Cale Yarbrough related to the race car legend?

Either way it doesn’t matter if Tim was taking it or not he was still going to beat the shit out of Cale. Cale should never have been on the show in the first place, he got lucky in the first match because he was getting his ass beat then the guy winded. Then for his second fight he fought the shittiest person in the house who didnt deserve to be there as well and barely won. I’m pretty sure they just made this match so that Tim could get a win and could stick around the UFC.
