Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC rankings due to extended inactivity. His last fight was against Ian Machado Garry in 2024, where he lost by finish. Since then, Covington has not competed in the UFC octagon. Instead, he has been involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has been appearing in RAF events. The UFC's decision to remove inactive fighters from rankings is standard policy to maintain current competitive standings.
