At the TUF 11 media day, Tito Ortiz dropped a pretty big bomb saying that Chuck Liddell was an alcoholic and that Dana White saved him with an intervention.
In the above vid (audio starts off badly, but the part about Chuck around 1:20 in is crystal clear), Ortiz says that Chuck was partying too much, but that Dana stepped in, that The Iceman has been sober since November, and that Ortiz is “proud of him.”
Who knows how much if that is true, but it would be very ballsy and careless for Ortiz to throw it out there if not. As Seinfeld would say, “that’s a pretty big matzo ball hanging out there” if not.
