Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC rankings due to lack of fighting activity. Covington last fought in 2024 when he lost by stoppage to Joaquin Buckley. Since that defeat, he has not competed inside the octagon. The post notes that while Covington has been inactive as a fighter, he has been involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has appeared in RAF (Russian promotions). His removal from the rankings reflects the UFC's policy of removing inactive fighters from official standings.
