Lewis arrived at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul confident, but even observers who knew very little about the race expected Johnson would win. The world watched and waited anxiously to find out who was "the fastest man on Earth". All of the cameras focused on Lewis and Johnson as the runners took their marks in the final heat. The crack of the starter's pistol sounded and the racers burst from the line. The crowd was used to Lewis trailing for the first half of the race - he just had a different style - and then finishing strong with his long stride to win. So, they held their breath as they watched Johnson build an early lead with his explosive start wondering if Lewis' strong finish would be enough to overcome him.虽然1988年刘易斯参加汉城（现称首尔）奥运会时满怀信心，但就算对径赛知之甚少的旁观者们也都认为约翰逊会获胜。全世界都急切地观望着，等待着，想知道谁是“世界上跑得最快的人”。当选手们在最后一轮比赛中站在起跑线上时，所有照相机的镜头都对准了刘易斯和约翰逊。发令枪“啪”地一声响过之后，运动员从起跑线上冲了出去。人们习惯于看到刘易斯在赛程的前一半落在后面──他就是这种与众不同的风格──最后来个大跨步的奋力冲刺。因此，当他们看到约翰逊凭着起跑时的爆发力领先时都屏住了呼吸，不知道刘易斯最后的冲刺是否能够击败对手。
