Colby Covington has been removed from the UFC's official rankings due to his lack of recent activity. Covington last fought in 2024 when he lost by stoppage to Joaquin Buckley. Since that defeat, the former title challenger has not competed inside the UFC octagon. Despite his removal from rankings, Covington remains active in other ways, including his ongoing lawsuit with Jorge Masvidal and appearances at RAF events. The removal reflects UFC's policy of maintaining rankings based on current activity rather than past achievements.
