He is showing that he's got a good mental game though, he hasn't really choked yet
I think hes been fortunate to this juncture that he hasnt faced anyone with elite finishing, he has the awful habit of sagging on the ropes during fights. He can get away with it against guys like takam and ruiz who are accumilation punchers but if he fights someone like david haye that would get him knocked out. My complaint is that ive seen this for a few fights and barry hasnt corrected it, nor does barry give good between rounds instruction.
