Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC rankings due to lack of activity in the octagon. His last fight was against Ian Machado Garry in 2024, where he suffered a stoppage loss. Despite being removed from official rankings, Covington remains active outside the cage through his lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and appearances in other promotions. The removal reflects UFC's policy of removing inactive fighters from official rankings to maintain relevance.
