LAS VEGAS -- Deontay Wilder became the first American to win a piece of the heavyweight title in nearly a decade Saturday night, staggering Bermane Stiverne early on his way to a 12-round unanimous decision that kept him unbeaten in 33 fights. Going deep into a fight for the first time in his career, Wilder controlled the fight with a big left jab, often followed by right hands up the middle as he piled up points early on his way to the biggest win of his career. The 2008 Olympic bronze medallist , who had never been past the fourth round in winning all 32 of his previous fights, had to go the distance in this one. But the payoff was the WBC heavyweight title and a chance to be a big man on a big stage. One ringside judge gave Wilder every round, scoring it 120-107, and he won 119-108 and 118-109 on the other two. The Associated Press had Wilder winning 117-111. Im going to bring excitement back to the heavyweight division, Wilder said. Im not going to sit around. Whoever is ready, Im ready. Wilder had stopped all 32 of his opponents, 18 in the first round and none past the fourth. But his opponents were a suspect lot, and Stiverne (24-2-1) was his first big test as a pro. He passed it with flying colours, staggering Stiverne on several occasions and dominating the fight with his left jab. Who cant box? Who cant box? Stiverne shouted at the ringside media as the fight ended. Ringside punch stats showed Wilders dominance, crediting him with landing 227 of 621 punches, including 120 of 420 jabs. Stiverne landed 110 of 327 punches, and only 38 jabs. It was the first heavyweight title fight at the MGM Grand since Mike Tyson bit off a piece of Evander Holyfields ear in the infamous Bite Fight 18 years ago. Both Tyson and Holyfield were on hand to watch, as was Larry Holmes, who fought often on the big stage as heavyweight champion in the 1970s and 80s. And the Alabama native became the first American to hold a piece of the heavyweight title since Shannon Briggs in 2006. I think I answered a lot of questions tonight, Wilder said. We knew we could go 12 rounds, we knew we could take a punch. Wilder took some, but with a huge reach advantage he was able to keep Stiverne on the outside most of the night and made him pay the price when he came inside. Stiverne was never knocked down but was staggered several times. I wasnt myself. I felt 100 per cent but I couldnt cut the ring off like I usually do, Stiverne said. I was throwing hard punches but I could only throw two of them at a time. Stiverne was defending the title he won last May when he stopped Chris Arreola in the sixth round. The WBC title had become vacant by the retirement of Vitali Klitschko, whose brother, Wladimir, is considered the true heavyweight champion. Even in uncharted territory past the fourth round, Wilder continued to control the fight, moving backward and throwing left jabs to keep Stiverne away. But Stiverne kept coming, and his punches started landing more often as the fight entered the middle rounds. Come on, fight Stiverne yelled at Wilder after hitting him with a left hook in the sixth round. The crowd of 8,453 was on its feet in the seventh round as Wilder staggered Stiverne yet again, landing a left jab followed by a straight right up the middle. Stiverne went into the ropes but managed to escape once more, yelling at Wilder to fight some more while throwing a right of his own that missed badly. Both fighters tired toward the end of the bout, drawing some boos from the crowd. But Wilder was still able to use his left jab to pile up points. Adding to the scene was 83-year-old promoter Don King, who also staged the Bite Fight. King, who promotes Stiverne but has largely been inactive in recent years, waved a variety of flags as he climbed into the ring with his fighter, a big cigar clenched between his teeth. Like Stiverne, though, he left the ring disappointed.

Sehn will have to wait until June until all countries have completed their Olympic qualifying procedures, to officially know whether it was enough to secure a second Olympic spot in the event for Canada. "It appears right now that theres a good chance," said Sehn, who faced 18 other divers in Sundays bonus event. "Today though didnt go as planned and I didnt dive at my best. The mistakes I made I just cant do at this level. This was the most stressful meet Ive ever been involved in. So much was on the line." Meanwhile Canada confirmed this past week that it is clearly still a powerful nation in the sport and a threat for a multi medal performance here at the Olympic Games this summer. Canada finished the competition with three medals: a silver for Emilie Heymans of St-Lambert, Que., and Jennifer Abel of Laval, Que., on womens three-metre synnchro; silver for Roseline Filion of Laval and Meaghan Benfeito of Montreal on womens 10-metre synchro and a bronze for Alexandre Despatie of Laval, Que.dddddddddddd, on mens three-metre. There were also two fourth-place finishes: Filion on 10-metre was just two points short of the podium and Pamela Ware of Montreal on womens three-metre just four points behind third place. After securing six Olympic spots at the world championships last year, Canada added four, potentially five more spots at the World Cup. That means they could possible compete in seven of eight events at the Olympics. "We surpassed our performance targets here," said Mitch Geller, Diving Canadas chief technical officer. "We saw Alex regain that competitive spark, it was a breakout competition for Pamela Ware and Roseline Filion confirmed that she can be a second medal threat for us on tower." Who fills those Olympic spots will be determined at the Olympic team trials May 25-27 in Montreal.
