Did he set out to win by cheating? Was he forced to or did he choose?

Armstrong is a sorry excuse for an individual, how he can have lied for years to his friends, his fans, the courts, his backers is amazing. Anything he achieved in the past means nothing now, nothing.

This will be just the start

IF Armstrong was taking drugs during those Tour de France victories they now mean nothing, he did it with illegal help so they don't count anymore.

Whatever evidence they have it must be enough as it's convinced him to give up the fight

Rubbish, plenty of people have been stripped of their titles in all sorts of sports. If you cheat to forgo your right to titles and any rewards you gained, the fact you got away with it at the time does not protect cheats

You give it to the guy who came last if he was the only one who didn't cheat. They either do it fairly or not and if they cheated they do not get to keep their titles.

So you think he in innocent but won't fight because he is tired, he will be cleared a cheat by the USADA which his family will have to live with in the future

It is very hard to figure this decision as anything other than a declaration of guilt, I would fight this until my grave if I was being wrongly accused no matter how sick I was.

By giving up like this his whole career and whole life means nothing, no records, no titles, no credibility

His reputation is everything I thought he would fight and fight for that no matter the pressure or the cost, giving up now must mean they have enough evidence against him that he knows he can't win, no other reason to give up at this stage.

He will end up being stripped of everything, he says he is innocent but will not fight it anymore?
