Agreed that both lying on the forms and in particular withholding information about a communicable disease should not be tolerated.
His sitting/standing pulses are high, but I don't know the setting in which they were obtained. If he got pulled out of a training session for the physical then it would not raise concern. If he was supposed to be calm and at rest when that was obtained, then it would prompt further questioning (nervous, caffeine, sick etc).
In the setting of having just missed weight, looking like he did on the scale, and having that significant of a resting tachycardia; it is disappointing that he was allowed to cut further. We need regulators to make the tough decisions to keep fighters safe. I expect that we will see some regulatory changes in Navada in the relatively near future.

@ErikMagraken. While Kevin did technically commit perjury, every fighter who has ever claimed a previously undisclosed injury after a fight has done the same thing. The UFC and AC's bear the brunt of the responsibility here, as it is not what you preach, it's what you tolerate that matters.
