Mandenhall, Fletcher or Rory?
« on: October 23, 2007, 07:14:48 AM »
In general I think these 3 were probably the best guys to never go pro..I know there are others but who was the best out of these 3?

*sorry...I can't find my pic of Edgar but I'm sure someone has one and can throw it on here.

He has a habit of doing a "Dennis James" (or would Dennis be doing a Edgar Fletcher?)--- he looked off the meter before a show, and whatever pact he had with the Devil would evaporate the day of the contest.

I've got that show-91 nationals-on tape from ESPN and Edgar looked unreal at that show...such an incredible taper, everything big, full, ripped but he still couldn't pull it off..I actually don't see how duffy beat Fletcher or Bo Matlock, both looked great.

Rory easily best physique not to turn pro. Incredible build. Is a friend and training partner of our own coach.

You mean Beau Matlock. I remember he was on a cover of Flex with Chris Cormier in army camo working out, and girl in high school went ga-ga over him. You can't lose with a name like Beau.

I agree about Edgar not pulling it off. He went down hill from there, I wonder what he is doing. He probably is healthier for not getting his pro card. A blessing in disguise.

It was '92 Nationals (as mentioned previously). Levrone won the '91 Nationals, with Wheeler in 2nd.

After that, he seemed to have developed a "thick skinned" look, that Vic Richard's and John Sherman also had developed.

sorry about that, I actually meant 92.  If I remember right Edgar showed up in great shape at the 93 USA's but had to pull out due to dehydration...I don't remember if he made it through pre judging or what but I think that was the last time he really nailed his conditioning.

Yeah did a Paul Dillet and wound up in the ER. I think that was it for him.

IMO Mendenhall is the best of the three, guy was perfect.But he never nailed it on stage

Agreed Rory was great. I trained under his guidance for a year. That pic of Matt above is well known to be altered.

I think that's the unaltered version of that pic, I could be wrong....

I think Rory looks outstanding in the above pic, I think he's better than Paris there but I'm not a judge...

Mendenhall reminds me of Jeff Poulin. Similar physique, arms and quads, except Mendenhall's is better. Matt's flows better.

Did Mendenhall have some mental problems that caused him to give up bodybuilding? I think I read something about panic anxiety from steroids?
