Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC welterweight rankings due to a lack of recent activity inside the octagon. Covington last fought in 2024 when he lost by stoppage to Joaquin Buckley. Since that defeat, Covington has been involved in legal proceedings with Jorge Masvidal and has made appearances in other ventures such as RAF. His removal from the rankings reflects the UFC's policy of excluding fighters who remain inactive for extended periods. The post notes this development for fans wondering about Covington's current standing in the division.
