Everyone knew that already...considering he tested positive for illegal substances months before the 1988 Olympics. This show did a good job of showing how slimy and shifty that guy is.

His coach, if possible, is even smugger.

Spoiler!

His cackle about Johnson testing positive, still 24 years later. Basically paying off the USOC to let him slide past that positive test, and paying off people from the IOC to get that teammate of Lewis, who Lewis said he "met a couple times" (even though there was video of Lewis hugging him more then once) into the doping room in Seoul, to supposedly snap pictures of Johnson if he was taking any sort of masking agent...where Johnson says, and the guy confirmed to Johnson a few years later and to the film maker of this show, that he may well have slipped something to Johnson's beer before getting the test done, to make sure the steroid was still detectable. That coach knew exactly what Lewis was doing, and doing all he could to make sure he lined the right pockets to get Johnson discredited. Disgusting.

All in all, great show. The only thing missing was Don Whitman's call.
