Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC welterweight rankings due to a lack of recent activity. Covington last fought in 2024 against Joaquin Buckley, losing via stoppage. Since then, he has not competed inside the octagon. The former title challenger is currently involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has made appearances in the RAF promotion. The UFC regularly removes inactive fighters from official rankings to keep divisions current and competitive.
