he wasn't the fastest man during his reign....got his ass whooped head to to head by bailey who was the fastest man at that time. ..
This is completely dumb ass rationale you've provided! Just because Michael Johnson wasn't considered the "fastest man" overall at the time based on a staged contest with Bailey, has no bearing on Johnson's dominance in the 400m or his gold medals & World Championships, which by the way is way more than Bailey has.
