English term or phrase: he’s mainly fighting
In short, when Jeff is denying, he’s not defending in any way, he’s mainly fighting.
En resumen, cuando Jeff está negando, no se está defendiendo de ninguna manera sino que está básicamente combatiendo/agrediendo?.

está básicamente luchando


Explanation:
En el caso previo de Joe (Joe&Mary) se refiere esta misma idea;
Joe is not primarily protecting or defending anything. He's mainly fighting to overcome all obstacles in the way of getting what he wants and resisting any submission to the will of others.


En este caso se alude a la misma idea; cuando Jeff se encuentra en negación, no se trata de un mecanismo de defensa; no se está defendiendo de nada en realidad. Jeff está luchando, está combatiendo para conseguir un objetivo específico y muy claro para él. De ahí que se aluda a que esto realmente no es una negación sino que Jeff simplemente está mintiendo. Y que sus mentiras no son fruto de un estado psicológico especial con el que explicar determinado tipo de reacciones por su parte. Jeff es plenamente consciente de lo que hace y de cuál es el objetivo por el que lucha.
(Jeff) está básicamente luchando [peleando, combatiendo]
