He didn't just fight Uruks; he fought to protect Merry and Pippin.
I'd also add that, considering the disparity between them and Boromir in importance, it seems an even more noble act for a distinguished scion of Gondor to lay down his life to protect two inconsequential hobbits.
Boromir's was an act of pure friendship and brotherly love.
