American light flyweight Nico Hernandez, a 20-year-old from Wichita, Kansas, clinched at least a bronze medal Wednesday with his unanimous three-round decision victory against Ecuadors Carlos Eduardo Quipo Palaxti in the quarterfinals at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.Hernandez is the first American male boxer to claim an Olympic medal since heavyweight Deontay Wilder received a bronze at the 2008 Games in Beijing.The 2012 mens boxing team did not win a single medal for the first time in history, a shock, considering Team USA had won a total of 110 medals, the most of any nation, including 49 golds.It feels good knowing we didnt medal at the last Olympics, Hernandez said. That gave me and my team a lot of motivation. Weve all been together since we were younger on the junior team and the U.S. team, so at practice we push each other. It means a lot to me coming here and getting the job done.I know [a U.S. medal] is real important for my coaches and USA Boxing and also for me and my family back at home. Im just real glad because I worked a long time for this.Hernandez will face Hasanboy Dusmatov of Uzbekistan in the semifinals Friday with a chance to claim at least a silver medal.

The third round was another close one, but he won it on all three scorecards to get the 29-28 decision from the judges.[The fight] was a little difficult, but I know as I go along the fights will get harder, Hernandez said. As long as I listen to my coaches and do what they say, I know they wont lead me in the wrong direction. [Going into the third round] they told me it was close. They told me the first round was close. I knew I took the second round. So they told me I needed that third round to win, so I went out there and executed the plan and got the win.They told me not to rush him, use the feints and let him come in, pick my uppercuts and stay on the outside. Thats what I did and it worked.While Hernandez was happy to win a medal, he said he wants more than a bronze.Im definitely excited about getting to this level and where Im at, but Im not satisfied with a bronze medal, he said. I came here to get gold so thats what I am going to continue to work towards. I dont want to lose in front of my parents. Ill be satisfied once I get the gold.Ruben Loftus-Cheek Jersey . -- Sergey Tolchinksy scored his second goal of the game 3:56 into overtime as the Sault Ste. Alvaro Morata Jersey .
