Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the official UFC rankings due to prolonged inactivity. His last fight was against Joaquin Buckley in 2024, which he lost by stoppage. Since then, Covington has not competed in the octagon. The post notes that Covington is currently engaged in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has been competing in the Russian promotion RAF. The removal from rankings marks a significant change in Covington's status within the UFC welterweight division.
