After stepping down as Chairman of Livestrong and having Nike cut ties with him, one of Lance Armstrong's teammates has been fired from his coaching duties.

Matt White's Career as cycling coach appears to be over.

The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting that cycling Australia fired White on Tuesday as its men's professional coordinator and national team coach after he confessed to doping while racing as a teammate with Armstrong.

The U.S. Anti-Doping agency recently released findings saying it had overwhelming evidence against Armstrong that he doped throughout the majority of his professional cycling career.

In August, the agency stripped Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles and banned him from competition for life.
