Here's Usain Bolt cold-cocking American Wallace Spearmon before the 200-meter final on Thursday night. The sprinters were warming up underneath Olympic Stadium when Bolt walked up out of nowhere and -- boom -- fake punch, right to the kisser.

Bolt and Spearmon are buddies and were hamming it up for the camera prior to the race. Moments later, the Jamaican made history as the first man to repeat in both the 100 and 200 at an Olympics.
