Babyface is 26-5, with three of those losses to Crocop. Check out the dudes he's fought and defeated on a consistent basis and then explain how someone like Brett Rogers can be ranked ahead of him.
I'm not a huge Barnett fan necessarily but credit where credit's due . . .
Babyface.

I would say the favourites rankings goes like this (from most favourite to least favoruite to win the tourney):
1) Silva
2) Kharitonov
3) Barnett
4) Overeem

I always like looking at other people's rankings. It's interesting to see how people come to their rankings. I guess a lot of people just do it by perceived talent or potential? Mine are by quality of recent wins and losses. It makes for confusion sometimes, like currently at heavyweight.
I have Overeem at 4 now because he beat Werdum, but you have to have Silva right before or after Werdum in my opinion because they both have recent wins over Fedor and other quality recent wins. Lesnar could be lower, but if he returns soon and gets a top ten win he can stay.
I had Nelson at 10 and Nogueira out due to inactivity, but with Nelson being outclassed by Mir and Nog getting a fight scheduled I bumped him back in.

My list is based somewhat on recent appearances but also on who I think would beat one another based on what I've seen from each fighter.

As for Silva and Werdum and Reem order. I think Silva looked much more impressive in his win over Fedor than either Werdum or Overeem. I see this loss as more dragging Werdum down that pushing Overeem up. It was a bad enough performance by both men to not out do Silva's dominate performance over Fedor. Now that the top HWs are all under the Zuffa umbrella there will be far less speculating about who will win and we will see some actual results.
