Hours after the World Anti-Doping Agency released the results of its exhaustive findings in a 323-page report on Monday about the wide-reaching Russian track and field doping scandal, Victor Conte was already weighing in on the matter.
And even though Dick Pound, founding president of WADA, delivered forceful rhetoric in the report, describing Russia's massive problems as state-sponsored doping and the attention-grabbing conclusion of the independent commission's months-long work, Conte wasn't shocked by the report's findings.
"I have only read the first 50 pages of the Pound report thus far," Conte told The Japan Times on Monday night. "None of this surprises me."
