He sure does. Not only better names on his resume also he's approaching like 15 opponents that have been world champ not sure anybody else has anywhere near that. For example GGG is much older and has only beaten a total of 5 fighters who have been world champ in their careers.
I'm just not sure how impressive those wins are. Mosley was shot and just a name. That's a nothing win. Same with Chavez, Cintron, Kirkland. Khan was way too small and not that good anyway. With the exception of Mosley (about 10-15 years prior) and Khan those just weren't even that good in their primes.
Trout was solid but many believe he lost. Lara is good but most think he lost that one too. Cotto was an ok win but Cotto was clearly much smaller and far past his best. Sometimes a good win isn't just a "big name". Cotto did a lot better than he really should have.
GGG? Meh. Most the people celebrating Canelo's greatness said GGG sucks and was a terrible fighter even in his prime. A "draw" in a bad decision and a hotly debated "win" over GGG closer to 40 than 30 isn't that good when you factor in how bad a fighter GGG is/was.

Are you seriously doing this? Like we can't pick apart anyone's resume if we try hard enough? Stop it.
