Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the official UFC rankings due to his prolonged absence from competition. Covington's last fight was against Ian Machado Garry in 2024, where he suffered a stoppage loss. Since then, he has not competed in the octagon. Covington has remained active outside the cage, including ongoing legal proceedings with Jorge Masvidal and appearing at a RAF event. His removal from the rankings reflects the UFC's policy on fighter inactivity.
