Oshae Jones reflects on split draw: 'I'm ready to get out of Florida ASAP'

Oshae Jones said she performed well despite spending too much time on the ropes in her split draw with Elia Carranza. The result left her IBF junior middleweight title intact but clearly frustrated with the outcome.

“I think I did great. I could have stayed off the ropes more, but it is what it is. I'm ready to get out of Florida ASAP.”

What Oshae Jones said

Jones retained her IBF junior middleweight crown after the judges split on her performance against Carranza. The champion acknowledged a tactical misstep in allowing herself to be trapped against the ropes during exchanges, though she maintained her overall showing was strong.

What it moves

Jones made clear she wants to move on quickly from the Florida card. The draw means her next defence remains undefined, with the IBF likely to order a mandatory or allow her team to pursue a voluntary challenger. Whether Carranza earned a rematch claim will depend on the sanctioning body's view of the scorecards.
