David Barnes - the aftermath? Any news...

Anyone know if Barnes is OK now?
I, like many others, thought there was something not right about him in his last fight. perhaps he got caught in a nasty area around the temple (during the knockdown) and it messed up his mindset...?
He looked brilliant after dismantling Hare but has his head hit the ceiling?
Against Okine he didnt do the 'dirtier' stuff so well (to go with his skills) - he didnt hold enough and he looked uncomfortable when roughed up on the inside.
Hes only 24 but I reckon he needs a long break and needs to decide where hes going with his career. Must be condusing - Hes recently fought for WBO Intercont and Commonwealth and up until recently he had the Lonsdale to consider...
