"concerned with" und nicht "concerned about"-- Like Armorel said, it's neither "afraid of" nor "affected by."
There's another issue here which is the question if he was more concerned with x than *anybody* else OR if he was more concerned with x than with *anything* else. I believe it is the first option.
Peer comment(s):

agree OanaK (X) : to both issues.
