Huh??  (lol just "great calves"??)




I won't take back what I said. He did, in fact, have some BIG arms ... but I didn't personally find them " great ". Just my two cents, Mike.  :-\

If you didn't look too carefully you might think that was Dennis Wolf's back on the left there - good upper back but nonexistent lower half



He went to hospital after this didnt he?
I think I have led about that in the past...

  Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion (Mike Matarazzo was known tho for having great arms and calves)

i concur with this

Mike was totally under rated and usually competed in fantastic conditioning!

One of his problems was that he very rarely came in condition.

Munzer never got quite what he deserved in BBing IMO. He didnt have the best structure, but damn....he had a great blend of size and unmatched conditioning.

M!

I was never a fan of Mattarazzo. Great calves ... but, in my opinion, that's really about it. I remember reading about Mike's diet ... he said something along the lines of, " I eat 3 to 4 pounds of meat a day ( this is not verbatim ... but certainly close to what he said ) ... " ... perhaps this is what led him to his downfall. Obviously Steroids as well.  :-\
he had a family history of heart problems so they would have come along at some point anyway but the meat eating and general lifestyle a pro bodybuilder lives obviously aren't conducive to good heart health if the heredity isn't in your favor to begin with.
