Cycling's governing body agreed Monday to
strip American, Lance Armstrong, of his seven Tour de France titles and ban
him for life, following a report from the U.S. Anti-Doping
Agency that accused him of leading a massive doping program on
his teams.
Speaking from Geneva, International Cycling
Union President Pat McQuaid confirmed to a news conference that
UCI had decided to uphold USADA'S decision to strip Armstrong of
his Tour titles.
"Lance Armstrong has no place in cycling," McQuaid said.
Armstrong won consecutive Tours from
1999-2005.
What are your thoughts? Was stripping
him of his titles the appropriate action?
