Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC rankings due to lack of fights. His last bout was against Joaquin Buckley in 2024, which he lost by stoppage. Covington has been inactive in the UFC but has been involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has competed in RAF. The removal reflects the UFC's policy on ranking fighters who remain inactive for extended periods. Covington's status in the organization remains unclear following this development.
