They need to give him back his trophies, the best athlete of all time, period!
Keep that same energy with Barry Bonds
Never watched cycling before Armstrong, haven't since. Simply the most impressive performances (drugs or no drugs).
and he even stepped on the moon, best cycler ever
7 tours , that's 147 stages without crashing , a mechanical or getting ill , doping or not , that's legendary status . Especially when everyone around you was also doping , so it's a level playing field.
True legend, anyone that knows cycling knows everyone was doping in those days
They probably are still
And for all his fans who found out he was a draude and took drugs well thts your loss and better find a new hero bro
Frauds not drauge
That's your loss
They made an example of the American.
I was GLUED to the telly when Lance was riding! We always had a special Parisian breakfast when the rolled in Sunday's. Such fond memories. Spiked my desire for the road!!!
Drugs or no drugs....lance was on a whole different level
Well, in his case : drugs.
_Lance Armstrong was a legend because he made the impossible possible. Not many athletes in history can be said to have done that._ 💯
by using steroids
@@jck.1587 he didn't really use anything extravagant.
@@jck.1587 His main performance enhancements came from blood doping and EPO, not steroids.
@@jck.1587 Only clowns think everybody else was clean. Cycling is dirtier than horse racing. Lance didn't crush anyone that wasn't as least as dirty as him.
Lance Armstrong is the best cyclist ever. Everybody was doing drugs back then. He rode all those miles and won. He came back from cancer. He is the 7 time tour winner. He rode that shit and won.
He lost all his titles, so he is not a 7 time tour winner.
Back then? Everyone still is
100% A horrible person by most accounts, but anyone who says he wasn't the Road Cycling GOAT simply doesn't know what they are talking about.
@@seanyoung7184 so you believe doping aint happening during, pre, post currently? Think again. They were all using some sort of performance enhancement technique.
Lance is a horrible person.
What people who say “they were all on drugs, lance was just better” don’t understand is it really was just the drugs which dictated who was the best.
EPO made it possible for riders who were not climbers to become capable of winning tour mountain stages. Lance Armstrong was talented, no question, but he just had the best doping program out of all the other competition.
Remember, before his cancer diagnosis he never finished within the top 30 for GC in the tour.
This was a case where athletes aren’t winning due to grit or natural ability, but rather who had the best doctor.
This comment is correct. To say they were all cheating, so it was all even is far from fair. Armstrong took cheating to another level, he had informants inside the testing regime, warning him if his test levels were getting too high. He also bullied people and ruined lives, he lied continuously to everyone and is considered by most neutrals as a horrible person. I was a huge fan during his winning days, and watched all his races read his books etc. But I was fooled like everyone else. There is enough information about Armstrong now that we should all be able to see that he cheated badly and deserved to be stripped and banned.
He is still tue ALL TIME champ.
Still a winner. Still THE BEST…EVER.
Good luck on any other rider winning 7 in a row.
fully doped , anyone can go to the moon. ....winning nothing in a square for sure.
He won 2 Texas iron man triathlon competitions before starting professional cycling. No drugs involved. True athlete. I had a privilege to have dinner with him and some other athletes after he spoke for an hour at Nantucket project a few years back. He told all kinds of stories. They made him a scapegoat. But at the end of the day, he still raised 4 of his kids, created very big live strong foundation, beat cancer, list goes on. True champion frame no mater what. As a triathlete myself it is a very hard sport, you have to have superb discipline, motivation besides winning genetic lottery.
@@ackbuilder8262 Genetic lottery. Love that one. But so true. Regardless of the “doping”, the training regimen of Armstrong and his team was like no other. He trained harder than anyone else
on the Tour and it paid off. Not to mention the mind over matter aspect that one has to have to compete at that level. Just am amazing human being.
You were truly blessed to have met him.
I hope I can also meet him too one day as well. I think it is safe to say NO ONE will ever eclipse what he did. The French were just bent out of shape because an American bad ass took 7 tours….in a row!!
Lets face it, Lance is a bike machine that rolls down the road!
with the help from taking EPO of course
in a time every cyclist out of the top 10 in the TDF was on doping, he is still the best... Why do you think they never passed on his victory to the second, third, fourth or whatever? Because they KNEW everyone was on doping.
everyone doped during those times..........
@@JoseGonzalez-lr5zi you think no one is dope anymore 🤣
@@tylersnow75 no, im working in uci
@@user-il8ti2vl4w you think pushing 6+ wkg for an hour is natty😂😬
Pantani gave himself to cycling. One of the heroes of the grand tours.
Pantani eventually killed himself with drugs. Lance still run foundation, beat cancer, raised 4 kids etc. True masculine frame.
Give Lance his 7 titles back!
@William Fitzgibbon everybody did. He didn’t have any unfair advantage over the rest of the riders
@William Fitzgibbon And so did everyone else and the UCI knew it. They're just too spineless to admit it and had to make Lance into a scapegoat.
Amen
Lance is the best !!!
Lance rocks
Lance the Man
LoL cheat and bully
Me Le Tour de France thanks ; Love the Tour brings back many memories
ايام المتعة و الأجواء التي لا يمل منها الانسان
Grande homem, melhor ciclista da história, tanto no esporte como na vida, símbolo de superação e inspiração tanto para esportistas como para pessoas doentes de câncer quando ele mesmo venceu a doença e se tornou o atleta mais consagrado do ciclismo. No ciclismo suas performances foram magníficas, seu modo de se posicionar na bicicleta e pedalar de forma aerodinâmica é inconfundível, se destacava de qualquer adversário. Armstrong foi o Pelé do ciclismo, quem viu viu , quem não viu, não terá o privilégio de ver o maior.
Lance and Jan were the best battles
Excellent
RECOGNIZE LANCE'S TDF VICTORIES!
what a legend
The TDF. EVERYBODY did/does PEDS. Lance Armstrong was the only athlete who ever inspired me to be better. My realization is this: If any other USA rider ever achieves this level, the French will go after him with a vengeance. I have not paid attention to the TDF since Lance.
Damn if only we could see his power numbers!
They're over 9000!!!
@@geoffreyfaltot1006 hitting 7w/kg on some stages
500 watts for 30 minutes.
It is hilarious how the previously respected commentators talk about his helmet and weight loss from cancer has made him the best ever cyclist in history.
GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
LoL
Grest bastard of all time
more like the greatest cheater of all time
@@pmpmpmpmpmpmpmall them pros are. Even todays cyclists are cheaters its the truth🤣hes the 🐐 !!!!
Armstrong the best ever
LoL
He was a sociopath on a bike. Fuck him! Is he paying you to say nice things about him online?
I agree
Amazing man lance armstrong
he used steroids
@Maximus no
And hes a shit human being
Cheat and bully awful man
Le Boss. What a fckng animal!
Does it really make a difference on the doping??
viva le lance..!:)
Lance was the best cyclist the world has ever seen. He won because he was smarter than the other competitors. As far as I'm concerned, every single one of his victories was legitimate.
Legitimate ? He lost all his titles.
@@davidchardon1303 because they didnt want an American as the best ever, yea I said it They all doped. Dude went through chemo and surgeries. Also, noone thinks about how hard it it is just to not have a bad crash, mechanical issues ect ect in a tour, to win 7 of them is astonishing still to this day based on ALL the variables, not iust doping. If you think you can just dope and win 7 tour de frances, then you are mis informed.
@@davidchardon1303yeah but they were also cheating they all did it. The issue is that he went on live tv admitting it😂
so you call cheating legitimate?
The only time there hasn't been a tour de Frane champion. World war I, world war II, and Lance Armstrong (WWIII)
they could not award the win to anyone else because there were no clean riders
This is sick, can’t believe I missed it!
Trek still have that bike
Doping made cycling so fun to watch ah I miss these days
Still d best
Th CEO of EPO
Bike lah!
they rode without helmets, crazy
Lance Armstrong the greatest of all time

French will always say he cheated. They just hate losing like they did in WW2 and still ungrateful.
Um, he actually admitted he cheated.
@@patrickastwood287 was he forced to do so? If not how do you know?
Well he did cheat
How do I break this to you? France won WW2
@@AsraliaX2 They were on the Allied Forces, who won the war. But the statement "France won WW2" overstates their role drastically.
Wow, lots of irony here today, lol.
He was a great cyclist to watch. I wasn’t a fan of your the France at all until he began winning. I have not follow the tour ever since.
Liggett always backed armstrong even when some doubted him. More the pity he had a man crush it seems
He was the best.. at doping. Everyone else was doping too. He just acted like an @sshole when he got caught.
Should be titled “best of cycling on drugs.”
Because of doping, all his TDF titles were stripped out from as if he was not even part of the TDF races. Sad indeed.
The true legend here are those drugs, makes wonders to those cyclists.
You could train all day everyday for the rest of your life whilst taking all the PEDs in the world and still never do 2/3 of what he did in terms of performance figures.
Not that you'd have the grit to train like he did anyway.
@@desertrainfrog1691 Talking like that about someone online who you presumably know nothing about is pretty comical. FYI Primoz Roglic routinely does what Lance did without any of the magic snacks. Lance was overrated. There I said it.
@@michaelstratton5223 Yes, he dominated Le Tour for 7 years straight (doper vs other dopers) and won the UCI Road World Championship at age 22 against the greats of the late 80s/early 90s, but was overrated.
Primoz can barely finish Le Tour lately, but is otherwise a great cyclist. Similar performances to Lance? That would suggest he's not clean and nothing more. You don't achieve LA performance figures without dope. You can get about 90% of the way there in terms of average watts before sports science labs would refer to your performance as "a miracle." Let's see Primoz do 500watts for 30 minutes without doping. (He can't.)
Yes, without knowing them personally, I'm willing to bet that the original commenter here isn't capable of doing 333 watts for 30 minutes. (2/3 of Lance's claimed 500w for 30 minutes) That's not exactly a far shot or bad gamble, considering the amount of people who can do such a thing is far smaller than the number that are just strictly incapable.
The original commenter made it out as though everything special about the cyclists of the EPO era came from a syringe or bottle, and that's utter nonsense. What I said gives a bit of perspective on the natural talent of pro cyclists like Lance. Nothing more.
TL;Dr: The average man fully dedicated to training is unlikely to ever achieve anywhere near the performance figures of a pro cyclist. Pros are built different regardless of PED use, and there's nothing comical about that claim if you actually understand the night and day difference between normal fellas and pro athletes.
@@desertrainfrog1691 "Similar performances to Lance? That would suggest he's not clean and nothing more." So you're basically admitting your biased in favor of Lance. If Lance performs like Lance does, then he's the Jesus incarnate. But if anyone else does it, it just means they're on drugs. "The average man fully dedicated to training is unlikely to ever achieve anywhere near the performance figures of a pro cyclist." I've never cared much for the biological luck theory. And even if it were true, I'd have more respect for an "average man fully dedicated to training" whose only noteworthy achievement is to get third in the Roubaix rather than some freeloader of DNA who wins the TDF 6 times. In fact if it were just some clash of the DNA titans like you say, I think cycling would be very boring. So I can't believe that for a minute.
@@michaelstratton5223 @Michael Stratton Yes, because a pro on drugs is a pro on drugs and is better than a pro not on drugs. That's why those substances are banned. That and there is nothing natural about 500w/30 minutes, regardless of who does it. There is nothing natural about the performance figures reached by any of the top cyclists from the EPO era. Lance, Ullrich, Pantani..... They're equally as gifted as cyclists today, but they also had free reign to abuse PEDs. No I don't think Lance is incredibly special, but he was a great cyclist quite clearly.
An average man fully dedicated to training would probably never get third in the Roubaix because the average person isn't capable of becoming a pro cyclist on any level. Just like how the average person isn't capable of joining the NBA or any other pro sport. It's a pro sport, you have to be something incredible to get in. They don't let Jim from up the street race at the Roubaix.
Lance is the best. Europe couldn't handle his dominance.
Damn that guy in the pink fell so fucking hard
Pantani killed himself with drugs a few years after he stopped competing..
He ruined many careers through his actions. There is no justification for his behavior.
This should be: “the best of EPO.”
he rode the bike the drugs did not turn pedals
Are you stupid?
Well said! People think that because he took drugs it was easy for him. But they forget he was on his bike hours and hours to train.
@@jossadaan He's a sociopath who ruined people's lives, not someone to look up to.
Any high level of sports people use steroids. But steroids dont take away from the years upon years of training. You can give steroids to a common man , and it doesnt mean they will be top notch men. Just have more muscle..... Stop making yourselves feel better. We can still work hard and have amazing results without steroid though
Not many steroids used here..
People u can win without drugs is just these atheletes egos are big face.
most sports athletes don't use drugs.
Sports started without steriods and sports can be successful without steriods.
u can see many sports athletes that are natural and physically gifted.
Lance armstrong is not talented, or gifted. He is a cheater plain and simple.
Martin luther king is a inspiration
Cristiano ronaldo is a inspiration
Babe ruth is a inspiration
Lance armstrong is a fraud and the biggest piece of crap athlete of I have ever watch
Just remember they were all doping. Not sure but he seems to have gone woke!
Here some "Motivation" 💉💉💉
Some more "Motivation" 💊💊💊
If your claim is that his racing career didn't require excessive motivation, you're plain wrong.
He cheated straight up
He was a cheat, end of story. Doesn't matter if every other rider was a cheat also. The legends are those men that had the moral fortitude to not take performance enhancing drugs knowing they would be unable to beat the cheats, but still competed.
You know what guys an girls? I'm German and I think, they should give back his titles! Ullrich had it all, but he lacked in terms of dedication.
That's all. Literaly, everybody was stuffed with "things"...
A true champ does not take drugs to win
Why did uci strip off his tour de france win title dumdum
u shud stop watching professional sports then
They also don’t get knee surgeries, use power meters, eat a scientific based diet, get vaccinated or use any of the other hundreds of medical and scientific advancements we have made over the last 100 years.
Then our Sport has no true champions, wake up son don't be a naive baby.
Cheat and bully
👎
Take away those "magic potion" given by Dr Mitchell Ferrari and see what LA can do. Best was a mid-field finished and the worst part was pre 1999 he couldn't even climb at all. Ya everything changed out of a sudden huh?
He wasn't committed to it prior to 1999 either, and he weighed a lot more. Jan said if no one was doping (which almost all were) that Lance would still have won all seven tours regardless.
@@desertrainfrog1691 he wasn't getting the same sophisticated doping programme pre 1999 and therefore he could not win anything because simply he's not the best. He couldn't even climb LMAO. It was when he worked with Dr. Mitchel Ferrari and had that advanced drugs only he started to "win". Go figure! Ya that Jan, another doper himself.
@@100flite Advanced drugs? Blood doping, epo, cortisone was the base for all of it. You think other team doctors couldn't figure that one out? Lance also met Ferrari prior to 99' and had been doping before that.
I don't think he's a hero, but if you think the only special thing about him came from a bottle, you're understating accomplishment. No one else trained like him, his whole life became winning Le Tour.
You're also neglecting the change in bodyweight he experienced by the time he returned in 99'. His post cancer bodyweight was a lot less, which accounts for a lot of his change in climbing ability.
Yes, all of them were dopers. Lance, Jan, Pantani, Basso, etc.
@@desertrainfrog1691 talk is cheap. Show me proof that all the other riders has received all the similar advance doping received by LA and they were prescribed by Mitchel Ferrari. Give me proof, facts, eye witnesses testaments or at least something as well documented as in LA's case. Don't give me BS like hearsay etc. If you don't have any solid proof then you better stop talking. Also stop all the crap like no one train as hard as him bla bla... just to make him look better after he was caught cheating. That doesn't work. It only works for his fan boys who still cannot accept the fact that not only he's no hero but not a TdF contender at all. Bodyweight? It doesn't matter. Any results pre 1999?? Don't bring in other shitty stuff just for the sake of arguing. He's a scumbag who doped, lied, bullied countless people and until the day he was cornered, only he put up that show and remorse face trying to tell the whole world how sorry he was. That is your do called hero dumb arse.
He cheated in the Tour de France 5 times why people out here calling him an inspiration
Bullshit. French are always mad that they lose
You mean in a race where almost everyone dopped?
Lance is an inspiration no matter how you try and slice it.
it don't matter.
Lance just like ben johnson could have taken a different approach.
Hmm lets see don't take drugs and find a way to be a better runner or cyclist.
People act like drugs can helped u win or benefit your legacy.
All the little kids look up to him now see him as a fruad.
@@royjohnson5913 professional sports are not clean lol
Yeh lance armstrong is a legend but he
Cheated bye using stearoids and peapole were mad
And forced him to cut of his one testicle btw
dude WTF XD hahahahhahha
You must have cheated on your spelling test.
In reality armstrong has 0 wins, he was caught doping during all 7 wins and was stripped of all tore de france titles. Greg Lemond is the only American to ever win, which he did 3 times. BTW Lemond was the first person to call lance out for doping, at the time the cycling community shunned Lemond. Turns out he was correct, Lemond said that doping started in 1994 with all cyclists. Watch the espn 30 for 30 slaying the badger its about Greg Lemond and how he caught Lance cheating, and also winning 3 Tour De France Titles.
You're a clown. Cycling is dirty to it's core. Lance never beat anyone who was less dirty than himself.
Lance was a cheater he used drugs and stuff to win
You shouldve taken drugs n won those races
the whole sport was cheating
He didnt use drugs to win... he trained in Colorado and had his own blood drawn, saved, and injected into himself...
Ironic how you don’t use anything and lose daily.
im just coolin Meyers he did use drugs he used ethropoyetin and cortisone
Armstrong did drugs,he is a bad role model to future bikers
at the time all did lol.. just had the balls to finally admit it.
The ALL cheat.
They still all dope
