Yes! that's exactly what I've been trying to say. The Ring worked on Boromir's own weaknesses tempting him to his fall. But he defeated it in the end, by defeating himself and mastering his own baser side. 'A great victory'.
BTW: If Boromir is 'ignoble' for desiring power what does that make Galadriel? She admits right out that she's long desired the One Ring.
