Jaron Ennis<\/a> has revealed whether he considers countryman Terence Crawford<\/a> one of the greatest fighters of all time.<\/p>\n

\u2018Bud\u2019 Crawford etched his name into the boxing history books yet again earlier this month as he defeated Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez via unanimous decision<\/a> to capture the undisputed super-middleweight championship.<\/p>\n

The outcome of the historic showdown between Crawford and Canelo had been the topic of a heated debate between fans and analysts alike, but the American great put on an exceptional performance on the night to become the first male fighter to win an undisputed championship in three weight classes.<\/p>\n

One man who will be looking to emulate the legacy of \u2018Bud\u2019 in years to come is former unified welterweight champion \u2018Boots\u2019 Ennis, who has shared his thoughts on the credentials of his countryman and whether he regards him as one of boxing\u2019s all-time-greats.<\/p>\n

Speaking to YSM Sports Media<\/a>, Ennis claimed that whilst everyone is entitled to their own opinion, he doesn\u2019t actually believe Crawford is one of the greatest fighters of all time.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody got their own opinions \u2026 My opinion is I like who I like. I like Roy Jones, Floyd Mayweather, Pernell Whitaker, I\u2019m liking Sugar Ray Leonard, I been watching a little bit of Sugar Ray Leonard, they my top guys that I been watching.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Boots\u2019 begins his journey towards becoming a two-weight world champion next month as he gears up to make his super-welterweight debut against Portugal\u2019s Uisma Lima in a non-title bout at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on October 11.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jaron Ennis has revealed whether he considers countryman Terence Crawford one of the greatest fighters of all time.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":169125,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-169124","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/169125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=169124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=169124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
