Less than 24 hours after finishing fifth in the 200-meter individual medley -- a race billed as the final head-to-head showdown between him and Michael Phelps -- 12-time Olympic medalist Ryan Lochte opened the door for future Olympic races between the two most decorated swimmers in history.He said hes going to retire after 2012, and I was the only one that said hed come back, Lochte said in a news conference Friday afternoon in Rio. And I think hes coming back again. He loves that excitement, loves that challenge on the block against seven swimmers. I think with a different purpose, hes going to come back and push his limits. Ill be back and I want him back because we push each other. USA needs this. Hes been the backbone.However, Phelps shut the door again after he won silver in the 100-meter butterfly Friday night, saying, I am not gonna be competing in four years.Phelps will be 35 in 2020, when the Tokyo Olympics will be held. Lochte will be 36. When asked if Lochte believed he would be the best in the world had Phelps been born in another era, Lochte said sometimes.But sometimes I dont. I dont want to be the Michael Phelps. I want to be the Ryan Lochte, he said. I do the hair, the grills, the shoes, thats me. Michael is an amazing ambassador of the game. Hes like a Michael Jordan. Im just being me. I dont know if Id be in this position if it wasnt for him.Before answering the inevitable questions about his dating life and the current color of his hair, Lochte also praised 19-year-old U.S. teammate Katie Ledecky, who already had won three gold medals in Rio before setting a world record in the 800-meter freestyle Friday night, calling her a phenom.She is going to beat my times on long-distance races and thats crazy, he said. Shes so young and determined and loves the sport. She is going to keep breaking records, no doubt she will.

Baker acknowledged that he fought defensively in the latter part of the fight, seeking to protect his slight lead by not risking being attacked by Liparteliani.Liparteliani was seeded fifth and fought at the London Olympics but got knocked out in the second round. The loss left him in tears and he struggled to maintain his composure through the medals ceremony.The mens bronze medals were won by South Koreas Donghan Gwak and Chinas Xunzhao Cheng.Japans two golds Wednesday put the country atop the judo medal table, adding to the gold already won by Shohei Ono in the mens 73-kilogram division Monday. Although Japan dominated for years at the Olympics in the martial art it developed, the country had its worst performance at the London Games, where it won only one gold.We have to perform graciously and courageously because Japan is the home of judo, Tachimoto said after her win. Judo is one of the most important sports to the Japanese people, and they expect gold medals. ' ' '
