Colby Covington removed from UFC rankings due to inactivity

Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC welterweight rankings due to lack of activity. Covington's last fight was against Joaquin Buckley in 2024, which he lost by stoppage. Since that defeat, he has not competed in the octagon. The post notes that while removed from rankings, Covington is currently involved in a lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and has competed in the RAF promotion. His removal follows the UFC's policy of delisting fighters who remain inactive for extended periods.
