Mike's arms were huge but had no separation

a lot of guys crushed him on arms

you guys are right about the calves tho

monstercalves · « **Reply #26 on:** June 05, 2007, 08:27:05 PM »

jay has more seperation in his arms .....but mikes would most likely be bigger.........

only a clown would say someone has better calves than mike matarazzo....

dorian,nasser,dillet,branch,cutler......all outstanding calves.....dorian probably closest to matarazzo's

i saw Mike compete in 90 or 91 or something like that at the Golds Classic in Boston...I believe it was his first show...The guys arms and calves were the same size you see in the pictures even back then....Now that guys was way before synthol...

I much prefer Dorian's calves to Mike's becuase A) mike's calves are too high B) Dorian's are a couple inches bigger

talk sense..........dorians calves are amazing but matarazzo's calves are without a doubt bigger...

and...

mike's calves are too high?......generally black guys have high calves,like martinez/shawn ray.
mike's calves tie in as low as dorians (im not going to say lower coz they're not) and they are freakier/thicker......im sure bob or shawn would verify this as they both saw mike & dorian compete on the same stage at the same time......and shawn actually competed on the same stage at the same time as both mike & dorian.....

my conclusion is that dorians calves are almost as good as big mike's

Dorian's calves were 24"

sorry to get you all butt-hurt though

monstercalves · « **Reply #34 on:** June 05, 2007, 10:01:31 PM »

sorry cant agree with this....i can never trust stats/measurements......

if there was a video from back then measuring dorian's then measuring mike's then maybe

fact is.....the pics show mike's are that bit more developed,freaky,thicker,wider........

as far as ankle width to calf muscle width (at the widest and narrowest points) goes....mike wins

Agreed. And that is saying a lot considering how good Mike's calves were. Dorian's were up there, but the victory clearly goes to Mike.

MATARRAZZO 2nd show was the usa's and he was skinned for a hvgwgt,beat flex,caputo,francois,was only 230 at 5'10 and striated even quads ,had frame to handle his mass as the yrs went on,i thought his usa look was awesome but at pro level more is better,97 was his best yr had great condition and size.

Figo · « **Reply #40 on:** June 06, 2007, 07:21:09 AM »

I never said Matarazzo was a great. or one of the greatest, but freaky, yes.

Shoulder width, arms and calves were unbeliveable.

Upper chest, thighs, back not on par with those freaky bodyparts, also long torso made him look disproportionate.

I suppose he was blessed and cursed genetically.

As far as Cutler and Yates comparing calves, no contest.

Monster_Everything · « **Reply #41 on:** June 06, 2007, 07:25:39 AM »

his narrow lats, long torso and unproportionately small chest kept him at bay....

Great Arms, Top 3 Calves (if not the best) and has a nice collection of Jordans...

peroni · « **Reply #42 on:** June 06, 2007, 01:31:45 PM »

His arms were way too big for his body. They make his legs look small by comparison in those pics. They're impressive but so is symmetry. He also needs lats and thighs. If you're going to have arms like that, keep the rest of your body covered while flexing them because it's likely you can't remain in proportion. He didn't.

no offense man but they weren't anywhere near 24 inches, they were probably closer to 20 inches which is still ungodly huge for a calf.

compared to what pros that he competed against?

E

absolutely, and many pro bbers of his time would agree that they he had some of the best arms of that time.

michael arvilla · « **Reply #45 on:** June 06, 2007, 02:03:42 PM »

I have seen (up-close) both Mike and Dorian in there prime

Mike had bigger/freakier calves than Dorian (Doz's had huge calves tho!)

also...............Mikes arms had unreal separation in them (find some pics of the 1991 USA which he turned pro at)

Yup.. works for AJ's in Modesto. Flex & I 've seen him a couple of times when I was living up there.

He's still pretty big and looks very healthy.

Hell of a great guy. The kind nobody can't say negative shit about.
