Both cats were very big... obviously. Of the two, I've seen Rory off season & still fairly tight and he was huge. I've seen Mendenhall 4 - 5 weeks after a show and he was still vascular and very big but not as big a Rory. That's the way I remember it. Two of the best non-pros of all time.
The screencap that Coach posted is the one i took from this video of the 83 Nationals.Watch Rory pose and see the posedown and at the 4.30 mark you will see Matt and Rory relaxed in the lineup.Then make your mind up.
One of the greatest photos of a bodybuilder ever. Matt doesnt come close.
Yep, Rory is bigger. Check around 04:21,
Great era in bodybuilding. These were the guys that inspired me, Paris, Leidelmeyer, Mendenhall. I remember wanting to actually look like these guys. Can't say the same for most of the synthol, preggers out there today.
This, 91, was the best Nationals line up in HISTORY-even better than 83.Matt Mendenhall comes on at 3:13, do NOT tell me Rory was EVER bigger than Matt in this video.
