Colby Covington Claims Top Spot in Inaugural RAF Crossover Rankings

The RAF promotion officially unveiled its inaugural crossover rankings on Monday, placing current cruiserweight crossover champion Colby Covington at the No. 1 position. Covington, who remains undefeated in the promotion with a 5-0 record, secured the top spot following a run that includes victories over several notable former champions.

While Covington leads the inaugural list, the organization highlighted the competitive nature of the division, noting that the standings are tightly contested behind the reigning champion. Other high-profile fighters featured in the initial rankings rollout include Arman Tsarukyan and Khamzat Chimaev. The promotion’s move to establish a formal ranking system for its crossover division aims to provide clearer structure for title contention and future matchup bookings.

Covington’s placement reflects his dominance within the RAF cruiserweight landscape, as he continues to defend his championship standing. The organization confirmed that these rankings will be updated periodically to reflect fighter activity and performance metrics across the promotion’s events.
