Armstrong’s interview with Ophra sent shock waves around the world.
Tennis has already been under “attack” for some allegation (here a bit of history). Nole has just released an interview were he was quite harsh with the cyclist.
From Nole
“It would be ridiculous for him to decline and refuse all the charges because it has been proven,” Djokovic said after his match with Stepanek
“They have like a thousand proofs that he’s positive. I think it’s a disgrace for the sport to have an athlete like this. He cheated the sport. He cheated many people around the world with his career, with his life story.
I think they should take all his titles away because it’s not fair towards any sportsman, any athlete. It’s just not the way to be successful.
So I think he should suffer for his lies all these years.”
Losing faith on cycling
“I lost a lot of faith in cycling,” he added . “I used to watch it. All the big champions that were there, Marco Pantani, now Lance Armstrong. Yeah, I don’t want to say all. I really don’t know. There has been so much controversy about that sport. I’m sure that there are many cyclists in the world who are training very hard and trying to not use any enhancing drugs for their competition.
“But I think it’s not acceptable that they have physically so much races in short period of the time. I think basically every single day, day and a half, they have to go through 200 miles. Uphill, downhill in Giro D’Italia, Tour de France, that’s inhuman effort. As you can see, Lance Armstrong, many other big champions, had to use something to succeed.”
