Claressa Shields fights her way to a gold medal over Nouchka Fontijn of the Netherlands. Claressa Shields became the first American boxer to earn two Olympic titles Sunday when she won a unanimous-decision victory over Nouchka Fontijn of the Netherlands in the women's middleweight final. Shields dominated the Rio tournament, winning all 12 of her fights. The victory ran Shields' record to 77-1, with her only loss coming before the London Games four years ago. The three medals are the most for a U.S. boxing team in the Olympics since 2000, when the Americans won four.
