EVENTS 100-m dash, 4 x 100-m relay THE DRAMA A motorcycle accident has slowed this brash sprinter since he won gold in 2000, but like Muhammad Ali, Greene claims to be "the greatest."

And while the hooting crowd is clearly loving it, my front-row seats are reminding...

At a bout last month, spectators included Cindy Crawford and basketball player Shaquille O'Neal - who, the owners say, once asked for the date of a fight to be changed because he had a game.
