RIO DE JANEIRO -- His focus seemingly unflappable, Shakur Stevenson was briefly distracted when he heard a familiar voice as he walked out for his Olympic bout. Cheap Shoes .Augie! Augie!Floyd Mayweather Jr. was in the house and shouting at U.S. boxing assistant coach Augie Sanchez.Stevenson had been bummed out when he was told Mayweather had left the Rio de Janeiro Games. Turned out, the rumor was false and one of Stevensons biggest fans had the best seat in the arena to watch the top U.S. prospect continue his medal run.I got a little more nervous again, Stevenson said.Stevenson, who is from Newark, New Jersey, calmed his nerves and made a lasting impression on Mayweather with a convincing win over Mongolian fighter Tsendbaatar Erdenebat. The retired, undefeated Mayweather went wild for the 19-year-old Stevenson in a unanimous decision victory that guaranteed him a medal.And why not? Mayweather saw Stevenson fight with a style in the ring that reminded him of another great fighter.I see the next Floyd Mayweather, Mayweather said. If anybody can break my records, this young kid right here can do it. I truly believe in him.Mayweather believed in Stevenson (24-0 in international competition) so much that he expected more than gold for Stevenson -- Money May wanted the prized prospect on his blossoming Mayweather Promotions roster. Of course, hell have to compete with other promoters to grab the best U.S. amateur.When I saw him at my gym, I said, `Who is this guy? I want to sign him instantly, Mayweather said. I thought he was a professional. They said he was an amateur but hes got a professional style. Hes the No. 1 guy, of course, that Im interested in.All eyes were on Mayweather more than any fighter in the ring.Mayweather is still the undisputed top attraction at the boxing tournament in what was at least his third visit to the venue. The U.S. bronze medalist at the 1996 Atlanta Games smiled when he was shown and introduced on the big screen to a roaring ovation. Dozens of fans hurried his way for selfies. He never removed the earbuds attached to his mobile phone when he posed for a few fans.They were quickly shooed away and blocked off by members of Mayweathers friends known as TMT: The Money Team.Mayweather invited Popo Freitas, a former Brazilian boxing world champion, down to his seat for a quick chat.Mayweather enjoyed the fights, first from the front row of the corner of the bleacher seats, then he moved to dead center for the two American bouts.The 39-year-old Mayweather retired last year after a 49-0 career. The International Boxing Association (AIBA) changed its rules this year to allow professionals to fight at the Olympics, but Mayweather had no interest.He also ruled out a comeback.Im an old man, he said, laughing. Im treating my body good, being smart. I was still able to compete at the top level for 20 years. Ive done a lot in boxing. I just want to give back to young champions right here.Stevenson (wearing a Team Shakur shirt) and some friends and family joined Mayweather in the stands and posed for even more pictures.But Mayweathers A-list pull might not be enough to convince Stevenson to join the team. Stevenson is widely expected to sign a professional contract in the fall with Top Rank Boxing.Stevensons grandfather, Wali Moses, began teaching him how to box when he was 5, and he has barely lost since he won his first fight at 8. Stevensons mother, Malikah, named him after Tupac Shakur, the rapper and social activist who died nine months before her first son was born. Stevenson mostly avoided trouble on Newarks tough streets, and his grandfathers steady influence kept him devoted to his sport.Stevenson remains the brightest candidate to win the first mens gold medal in 12 years from once-proud USA Boxing.Andre Ward was the last American man to claim the top prize with at the 2004 Athens Games, and the London mens team failed to win any medals.Kansas fighter Nico Hernandez snapped the medal drought last week with a bronze.Stevenson has Russian fighter Vladimir Nikitin up next and the winner goes for gold.He was all smiles Tuesday when he had Mayweather by his side as they fought through a mob to escape the arena. Its even better for Mayweather to have his back.Its everything, Stevenson said. Thats the greatest of all time. Fake Shoes For Sale . Bradwell was scheduled to become a free agent Tuesday. Born and raised in Toronto, Bradwell is entering his sixth CFL season, with all six played for his hometown Argonauts. Discount Shoes . -- Anaheim Ducks defenceman Luca Sbisa will be out at least six weeks with a torn tendon in his right hand. https://www.fakeshoeswholesale.com/ . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity football teams. LOS ANGELES -- Undone by another rocky start, Scott Kazmir refused to link his latest disappointment to his first-inning struggles earlier this season.I feel like Im past that, said Kazmir, who gave up two runs in the first, including Jean Seguras leadoff home run, and another in second Saturday night as the Los Angeles Dodgers lost 4-2 to the Arizona Diamondbacks.I dont think of it like, `Here we go again,the veteran left-hander said. Thats not a good way to approach it. Its unfortunate. Its frustrating for sure. Having to always work through that first inning to put yourself in a good position. Still confident out there.Kazmir (9-4) gave up four runs and eight hits in 6 2/3 innings. The left-hander entered the game as the National Leagues only undefeated pitcher -- minimum of 10 starts -- since May 14, going 7-0 with a 3.73 ERA in 13 starts.Segura led the Diamondacks out of the starting gate by hitting Kazmirs third pitch of the game over the fence for his fourth leadoff home run of the season.I felt like the first two pitches were nice and smooth, good direction, good delivery, and then I tried to overthrow that third one, Kazmir said. Not as sharp early, but once I made adjustments, use my cutter a lot more in the late innings I was able to get some quick outs.With a 3-0 lead, Braden Shipley settled into give the Diamondbacks six scoreless innings, and the Dodgers fell for only the second time in six games. They dropped two games behind division-leading San Francisco.We just let this one slip away, Kazmir said. Giving up three early in the same, really setting the tone. Shipley, he was great out there. You have to tip your cap to him. He really pitched well out there.Los Angeles went 17-9 from June 26 through Friday night, and had cut the Giants division lead from 6 1/2 games to one since the All Star break.Shipley (1-1), Arizonas 2013 first-round draft pick, held the Dodgers to five hits in his second career start as the Diamondbacks won for only the third time in 11 games. He struck out four and walked one.I was just sticking with my plan, you know, staying down in the zone, using my sinker effectively, said Shipley, who got 11 ground-ball outs five days after surrendering three home runs in his major league debut. Thats kind of what I knew that I had to do coming into the night. JJust work down in the zone, and mix pitches, and use that sinker. Clearance Shoes. Segura added an RBI double in the second, and is hitting .396 (19 for 48) over his last 12 games.Joc Pederson hit his 15th home run, and second in two nights, with two outs in the ninth inning for Los Angeles. Corey Seager drilled his 30th double of the season with two outs in the third, tying the Dodgers rookie record for doubles set by Eric Karros in 1992.You never like losing, but offensively the scorecard doesnt really show the quality of our at-bats, said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. I think our guys competed, squared the baseball up, but didnt have a whole lot to show tonight.Brandon Drury singled home Phil Gosselin with two outs in the seventh for Arizonas final run. Gosselin had been called out stretching a single into a double, but the Diamondbacks challenged the call and it was overturned after a 1-minute, 27-second review.TRAINERS ROOMDiamondbacks: Zach Greinke pitched three innings in a rehab start Friday night in an Arizona rookie league game interrupted by a thunderstorm. Greinke, who threw 52 pitches, is expected to make one more minor-league start before returning to the Diamondbacks in 10 days or so, said Manager Chip Hale. ... Arizona sent LHP Zac Curtis to Double-A and designated RHP Josh Collmenter and INF-OF Micahel Freeman for assignment on Saturday.Dodgers: Los Angeles will make a decision in the next few days whether to activate INF Kike Hernandez (left ribcage inflammation). ... Nothing new on LHP Clayton Kershaw, who continues to rehab with core and back strengthening exercises. He has not resumed any baseball activities with no timetable for a return, said Manager Dave Roberts.UP NEXTDiamondbacks: LHP Patrick Corbin will make his fourth start of the season against the Dodgers in the series finale on Sunday. Corbin is 0-2 with a 5.51 ERA this year, but has a 2-1 record with a 3.25 ERA in five career starts at Dodger Stadium.Dodgers: RHP Bud Norris (6-9,4.27) makes his seventh start for the Dodgers since being acquired from Atlanta in June. Over his last 10 games -- including nine starts -- Norris is 5-2 with a 3.40 ERA, striking out 59 batters in 53 innings. ' ' '
