Charles told flexonline that he’s planning to skip the Mr. Olympia this year, following his dismay at his two consecutive and personally disappointing second placings at the Shawn Ray Colorado Pro May 13 and New York Pro May 20.

Alves indicated that he will probably skip the Olympia this year to give his body adequate rest and come back strong to battle for the Ironman in 2007, a contest where he feels he has some unfinished business to attend to

With Alves out of the running, the #14 spot is wide open.

I doubt Bob would be willing to defend his title against Dave Draper. Against competition like Alves, he'd fold faster than a cell phone.
