Are you asking if YOU (the defendant) need evidence? If you DO have any it would be a good idea to let your attorney about it, because, if you're actually about to go to trial obviously the prosecutor believes that HE has enough evidence to seek a conviction.

Can evidence not be shown in a trial?
The two main ways evidence would not be shown (admissible) in trial is 1.

Jury selection to sentencing for armed robbery?
Are you asking about the robbery TRIAL itself, or just the sentencing hearing?If you weren't sentenced immediately after the jury's verdict was delivered, you will receive a sentencing hearing at which the judge will announce your sentence for having already been found guilty by the jury.Sometimes, especially for capital crimes, the same trial jury will consider the sentence as a separate action from their verdict deliberations, but unless the armed robbery involved someone's death, this probably would not apply in this case.

The civil trial was a measure of justice for the Brown and Goldman families, and to a smaller degree, Dective Mark Furman. And with his last trial, the kidnapping/armed robbery trial, the community can sleep a little easier knowing Simpson is behind bars for a while.
