Ato Boldon said he is eagerly anticipating the trial of Jamaican-born sprint coach Trevor Graham.
Graham, who coached disgraced American sprinters Marion Jones, Justin Gatlin and Tim Montgomery, is charged with making false statements to federal agents.
Boldon, a former Trinidad and Tobago track star, is certain he will be exonerated when federal witness Angel Guillermo Heredia goes on the stand next month.
Heredia is expected to call the names of the elite athletes he claims to have provided with performance-enhancing drugs.
It was claimed that Heredia had shown the New York Times evidence of a $10,000 US wire transfer from Boldon’s former training partner Maurice Green.
Heredia apparently identified 12 clients, who had earned a total of 26 Olympic and 21 World Championship medals.
Boldon said he is not worried about the negative opinions being formed
