Bolt strikes again, and again

With the world watching, Usain Bolt again delivered in spectacular fashion at the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Bolt again outduelled countryman Yohan Blake, this time to win the 200m Olympic title, in a time of 19.32 seconds, to move into the legendary status he had talked about in the leadup to London.

The Jamaican becomes the first man to ever repeat as 200m champion in Olympic history. He's also the first to defend both the 100m and 200m titles.

The Jamaicans swept the podium, with Blake in second with a time of 19.44s, while Warren Weir turned in a personal-best time of 19.84s

The last country to sweep the 200 was the United States in 2004.

Bolt will now team with Blake in the men's 4x100m relay, hoping to complete the unmatched back-to-back-to-back gold medal triumph in consecutive Olympic Games.

In his five Olympic championship races Bolt has never won anything less than gold.
