Prizefighter results: Gary Sykes eliminates Anthony Crolla in semifinal

After cruising through his quarterfinal, Anthony Crolla started his semifinal fight with Gary Sykes, a rematch from 2009, very well, winning the first round. But suddenly, Sykes warmed up, didn't look rusty anymore, and took over in the final two rounds to win a split decision, 29-28 on all three cards, two for Sykes and one for Crolla.

Sykes now moves on to face Terry Flannigan in the tournament final after his second win over Crolla. Flannigan defeated a busted-up Derry Mathews in the semifinal after outclassing Liam Patrick Walsh in the first round.

Prizefighter results: Flanningan on to finals with win over bloody Mathews

Derry Mathews came out of his quarterfinal matchup with two bad cuts, and somehow was allowed to fight on in today's Prizefighter tournament. It proved to be a bad idea, as the cuts were quickly reopened, leaving the tough Mathews in a no-win situation, eventually outpointed by Terry Flannigan, 29-27 on all three cards.

Mathews (31-8-1, 16 KO) was the betting favorite to win the tournament, but cuts suffered against Spence really did him in, even though he swept his quarterfinal matchup. Flannigan (17-0, 4 KO) now is in a good position to score a big upset tournament win, as he awaits the Crolla-Sykes II winner in the final fight.

Prizefighter results: Gary Sykes edges Tommy Coyle in quarterfinal

A somewhat rusty Gary Sykes managed to pull through with a quarterfinal win over underdog Tommy Coyle in the Prizefighter quarterfinal, winning on scores of 30-27, 29-28, and 29-28. The scoring was a bit controversial, at least on Twitter, among people who know Coyle personally, but in all honesty, most of our viewers seemed to have Coyle nicking it, too.

Sykes (21-2, 5 KO) will now face Anthony Crolla in a rematch. The two met in 2009, with Sykes winning a 10-round decision.

Crolla (24-3, 9 KO) looked sharp in his opening fight, and will now await the winner of the Gary Sykes-Tommy Coyle fight up next. If Sykes wins, it will be a rematch between he and Crolla. Sykes beat Crolla back in 2009 in a 10-round decision.

Prizefighter results: Terry Flannigan gets past Liam Patrick Walsh in quarterfinal

Manchester southpaw Terry Flannigan improved to 16-0 (4 KO) with a quarterfinal win in Prizefighter today over Liam Patrick Walsh, winning a three-round decision to advance to the semifinals, where he'll face the busted-up Derry Mathews, who suffered two cuts in his first round win over Jamie Spence.

Flannigan was able to fairly easily outbox the brawling Walsh, who gave a real effort but was a bit outclassed overall.

Prizefighter results: Derry Mathews beats Jamie Spence, but suffers two cuts in quarterfinal

Veteran Derry Mathews was the superior man in the Prizefighter quarterfinal this afternoon against Jamie Spence, but chances seem pretty good that he won't be able to move on, suffering cuts near both eyes.

Mathews (31-7-1, 16 KO) won the fight 30-27 on all three judges' scorecards, but Spence (10-4, 2 KO) may take his place in the semifinals anyway. After the fight, Mathews rushed backstage to try to get some attention to the cuts, but he seemed to understand after the final bell of the bout that he most likely would not be able to fight again tonight.

It's a shame, as Mathews is a tough veteran, and the favorite for the tournament, and he outboxed and outfought a tough kid in Jamie Spence in a spirited first bout of the tournament.

Up next, Liam Patrick Walsh (10-1, 3 KO) faces Terry Flannigan (15-0, 4 KO). Join our live coverage and discussion here!
