He is widely recognized for his success across multiple weight divisions, having held world championships in four different classes ranging from light middleweight to light heavyweight. A significant milestone in his career was becoming the first undisputed super middleweight champion in history in 2021, a feat he later repeated.
His career is notable for achieving unified titles in three of those four weight classes and for holding the prestigious Ring magazine super middleweight title for a five-year period. This consistent performance at the highest levels of the sport has cemented his status as one of the leading boxers of his generation.
