    The Floyd Landis vs. Lance Armstrong battle of words took another step Friday when in his first television interview since admitting his own performance-enhancing drug use, Landis said that he saw his former cycling teammate and friend use drugs and receive blood transfusions during races.

    "Rather than go into the entire detail of every single time I've seen it, yes," Landis told ABC's "Nightline" in an interview scheduled to run Friday night. "I saw Lance Armstrong using drugs."

    Landis said that Armstrong has used performance-enhancing drugs throughout his career and has also transfused his own blood, a banned practice that gives athletes an advantage by increasing their red blood cell count and, therefore, their endurance.

    Tim Herman, Armstrong's lawyer, denied the allegations.

    "Landis is a confessed perjurer and he is a liar, and I think, as Lance said ... when you taste milk to see if it's sour, you take a first taste and you don't have to drink the whole carton to know it's all sour," Herman told ESPN.com.
