RIO DE JANEIRO -- When Claressa Shields won a gold medal in boxing at the 2012 Olympics, she was just 17 years old. She could be quiet and reserved. She received almost no endorsement offers, while bronze medalist Marlen Esparza received several.Times have changed. Shields is four years older, entertainingly outspoken, and a much bigger name, in sports and beyond. She says she has made eight international commercials. She has endorsement deals with Powerade and Mini Cooper. There is a movie about her, T-Rex: Her Fight for Gold. She gets much more media attention -- she dominated the pre-competition press conference for the entire U.S. boxing team here -- and deservedly so.Good things come to those who wait, Shields said Wednesday after her unanimous victory over Russias Yaroslava Yakushina in their middleweight quarterfinal bout. And I dont think I was ready for that stuff when I was 17. I think its come at the right time and Im able to handle everything.In branding herself, Shields says she is altering the definition of what a woman can be.When people have the definition of a woman, they always say, Is this a pretty woman, is she skinny or elegant, or does she wear her hair straight? And Im kind of changing that definition of what a strong woman is, she said. A strong woman can have muscles, a strong woman can get into a ring and fight, a strong woman can transition from having braids and straight hair. When I get outside the ring, I just carry myself the way Im supposed. I keep my hair done. Im a lady and very flexible, but when Im inside the ring, Im a beast.Is she ever. Shields has a 75-1 record, and she is not only confident she will win gold again but also absolutely certain she will. Her ambition coming here is to be the USAs first-ever double gold medalist boxer in 27 Olympics, U.S. boxing coach Billy Walsh said.After Wednesdays bout, a reporter mentioned that Shields had slept several days with her gold medal in 2012 and then asked whether she would do so again if she won. Shields glared back and responded: If?I definitely think Im the best fighter in the world here, Shields said in a line comparable to Muhammad Alis I am the greatest!Shields could be right about that. She is rarely challenged by her opponents and spars against male boxers. She used to tell her coaches that she needed to spar against boys, but they would say no. Then, when her coaches noticed how easy it was for her to spar against female boxers, she insisted, Put me in the ring with the guys! She finally was allowed to spar with men, including fellow Olympian Shakur Stevenson.All that has only made her better and stronger. And she will have to fight better and stronger in the semifinal than she did on Wednesday. Even though she won, Shields was a little off the first couple rounds before dominating the later rounds. She described her fight as a C-minus performance, adding, Im trying to get A-plus in all my fights. Im definitely going to get my next one.Shields has reason to be confident given all that she has overcome. She endured an incredibly difficult childhood, growing up in Flint, Michigan, where her father was in and out of prison for selling drugs, her mother was often absent, and Shields was sexually molested. Despite all that, she is now back on the world stage.Claressa came out of nowhere, and now the world loves her because of the way she fights, U.S. assistant coach Kay Koroma said. She fights differently from every other girl, and even some of the boys. And maybe she should be in there with the boys sometimes. Air Max Skor Online . Ashley Youngs cross was inadvertently headed by Chester into his own net in the 66th minute, allowing United to claim a third straight league win. "We had to dig deep with our fighting spirit and weve done that," United striker Wayne Rooney said. Air Max Billigt .C. -- Al Jefferson joked that he feels he can score from anywhere on the court. http://www.airmaxsverige.com/ . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

For the Wild it was their first win of the season and they now have a record of 1-1-2 while the Jets fall to 2-2. Jets start a six game home stand Friday with another divisional game, home to the Dallas Stars. Every week, well mine the waiver wire for lesser-owned assets to help your squad, whether you favor dynasty or the redraft format -- and well also toss in some tips for DFS players out there. Categorized by position, the players are ranked in descending order by ownership percentage in ESPN leagues.Well also include some former go-to fantasy assets who may be overvalued -- in the short or long term -- for one reason or another.A journeyman center is reuniting with Alex Ovechkin in Washington, the second line is getting the job done in Boston, and a reason why you should care about an untested goaltender in Philly.ForwardsAntoine Roussel, LW, Dallas Stars Ownership percentage: 26.5Come for Roussels perennially generous PIM collection, stay for his recent uptick in production. Notorious for spending an inordinate number of minutes in the box, Roussel has also lit up the scoreboard of late, riding a six-game point streak with three goals and five assists. No he didnt do this all on his own; hes been skating on a scoring line with top center Tyler Seguin.Ryan Spooner, C/LW, Boston Bruins Ownership percentage: 17.0If unable to exploit David Krejci during his current hot streak, instead consider the centers linemate. The Spooner-Krejci-David Backes trio has been the Bruins best during this latest run of three wins, with all three also seeing minutes on the clubs top power play.Conor Sheary, LW/RW, Pittsburgh Penguins Ownership percentage: 11.7Playing on a scoring line with Sidney Crosby certainly packs its perks. Since returning from an eye injury, Sheary has two goals and three assists (as well as a plus-six rating) through four contests. The 24-year-old sophomore is also seeing a modest increase in ice time.Teuvo Teravainen, LW, Carolina Hurricanes Ownership percentage: 11.3The forward trio of Teravainen, center Jordan Staal, and talented rookie Sebastien Aho (ownership percentage: 4.8) has provided a glint of silvered lining during an otherwise dim run in Carolina, combining for five goals and eight assists in just two games. Just make sure Staal is in the lineup after suffering a (minor?) hand injury on Saturday.Jay Beagle, C, Washington Capitals Ownership percentage: 0.6The latest shuffle in Washington sees Beagle ascend to the centermans position alongside Alex Ovechkin (and Andre Burakovsky). The long-time Capital has sparkled -- relatively and briefly, mind you -- with Ovechkin in the past, and deserves consideration as a short-term plug on your own season-long roster, or as a cheap asset in DFS.Anthony Mantha, RW, Detroit Red Wings Ownership percentage: 2.1The 22-year-old was impressive enough in his season debut for the Red Wings on Saturday, logging nearly 19 minutes, including more than five with the extra skater. With eight goals and two assists in 10 AHL games in 2016-17, the former first-round draft selection (2013) is slated to compete on a line with Gustav Nyquist and Darren Helm, and the secondary power-play unit, versus the Lightning Tuesday. Mantha was a goal-scoring terror in the QMJHL, and merits additional attention in dynasty and keeper leagues.DefensemenJason Demers, Florida Panthers Ownership percentage: 10.8Since the former Shark and Star has a history of producing in bunches, were taking greater notice of his recent run of six points -- including three power-play assists -- in seven games. Furthermore, Demers logged well over 24 minutes against the Islanders on Saturday, so he can boost that category as well.Michael Del Zotto, Philadelphia Flyers Ownership percentage: 10.1Back in tthe fray after missing the start to 2016-17 with a bad knee, Del Zotto has quietly collected three points, 20 hits, and seven blocked shots in only four games.dddddddddddd. Paired with Shayne Gostisbehere at even strength, Del Zotto might also soon be rewarded with additional minutes with the man advantage as well.Derek Forbort, Los Angeles Kings Ownership percentage: 2.1Warranting attention in fantasy leagues that prize non-scoring categories, Forbort is making his presence felt in Los Angeles. Paired with top blueliner Drew Doughty, the 24-year-old rookie leads the Kings in blocked shots (34), and ranks second in PIM. He also has 34 hits to his credit. Theres reason the club drafted this imposing young blueliner 15th overall in 2010.GoaltendersJonathan Bernier, Anaheim Ducks Ownership percentage: 4.9Playing behind John Gibson, Bernier has put up better numbers as the Ducks backup, particularly of late. While were not predicting the latter will usurp the former on Anaheims depth chart anytime soon, coach Randy Carlyle wont be miserly with offering Bernier ample opportunities should this trend continue.Keith Kinkaid, New Jersey Devils Ownership percentage: 2.0As with the Gibson/Bernier duo, Cory Schneider is in little danger of losing his standing as the Devils preferred starter for the long term. However, Kinkaid has been excellent in limited action this month, including a 2-0 record, .967 save percentage and 1.00 goals-against average. The 27-year-old is worth keeping in mind as an inexpensive daily fantasy asset with great potential upside when pegged to start.Anthony Stolarz, Philadelphia Flyers Ownership percentage: 0.8The lower-body injury to Michal Neuvirth -- whos projected to miss weeks -- combined with this seasons inferior play from Steve Mason, means we could see Stolarz make his NHL debut sooner rather than later. The 22-year-old has been better than good with the AHL Phantoms, boasting a .927 save percentage and 2.39 goals-against average. Many pundits believe this former OHL star with the London Knights could be the real deal.Lowered expectationsMatt Duchene, C/RW, Colorado Avalanche Ownership percentage: 90.6Concussion-like symptoms are always concerning, and theres little point in trying to predict when a player will return from a head injury. Hopefully Duchene isnt out for long. In the meanwhile, Mikhail Grigorenko is benefiting from an increase in quality ice time on a line with Gabriel Landeskog and Nathan MacKinnon.Michael Cammalleri, LW, New Jersey Devils Ownership percentage: 41.1Cammalleri is projected to miss his third straight game for personal reasons on Tuesday. If possible, shelve the experienced sniper until we get a better understanding of whats going on.Dennis Seidenberg, D, New York Islanders Ownership percentage: 27.6The veteran blueliner could be out for weeks after suffering a broken jaw this weekend. On the upside for the Islanders, defenseman Travis Hamonic is back in the lineup after missing three games with a suspected thumb injury. Hamonic was originally tapped to sit out about a month.Nino Niederreiter, LW/RW, Minnesota Wild Ownership percentage: 15.2The pending return of Zach Parise (foot) means Niederreiter might not be long for his role on a line with center Eric Staal and Charlie Coyle. However, its worth noting that Parise is initially expected to compete on an even-strength unit with Erik Haula and Jason Pominville. Stay tuned. ' ' '
