Changing Room Chat: Lance Armstrong still talking like a winner

DEFIANT Lance Armstrong introduced himself as a seven-time Tour de France champion at a cancer conference on Wednesday.

“My name is Lance Armstrong. I am a cancer survivor,” he said to open his speech to the World Cancer Congress. “I’m a father of five. And yes, I won the Tour de France seven times.”

Armstrong announced last week he would no longer challenge the US Anti-Doping Agency’s drug charges against him. USADA threw out his competitive victories dating back to 1998, which would include all seven Tour wins. Armstrong, who has maintained his innocence, focused on his experience as a cancer survivor and the work of his foundation.
