Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC rankings due to his lack of activity in the octagon. His last fight was against Buckley in 2024, which he lost by stoppage. Since then, Covington has not competed in the UFC, though he has been involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has competed in RAF. The removal from the rankings is a standard procedure for fighters who have extended periods of inactivity.
