Ewert fight off
McVey will not fight Christopher Ewert at UFC 317 on Saturday, according to Aaron Bronsteter of TSN.ca.
ANALYSIS
Unfortunately for McVey, the fight cancellation has to do with his opponent. Ewert weighed several pounds over the UFC's middleweight limit and was subsequently cut. It is too late for the UFC to find McVey a new opponent, leaving his next fight without a date.
