this is a healthy looking bodybuilder. Now adays you have to have zero water, no skin layers, and look like an inside out person with extra veins. Very dangerous and unhealthy. the demands are getting scarce and the proportions of muscle mass.
I think the 90s were the last and best days sinse the 60. 70. and 80s . Before the Cutler Era.
He got destroyed by Dave Hawk. Maybe he lost his confidence and passion for the sport. If you remember Dave Hawk,you'd agree the butt whooping was just and that he was too perfect to let the size of Mendenhall get the best of him. Matt was never the same
he was doing too many shows (money etc) so his steriod cycle was up to 7 to 8 times what it should have been. so he was burned out, as beingon steriods for too long has side effects.
Just by reading articles etc, he one of the greatest never to turn pro. he just used steriods more than he should have. coz when ur on for so long - when ur not on it. ur obviously not as big, and because he was staying in shape all year long, (money shows etc) he had side effects. that y he quit bodybuilding at 31. thats young in bodybuilding ronnie coleman etc in his mid 40s now.
On December 8, 1984, Matts life takes a sudden twist: on his way to pick up some material for a bodybuilding semina in Canada, Matt hits another car which had driven through a red light. Matt, who was not wearing a seat belt, is ejected through the windshield & lands in the middle of the street. Rushed to the hospital, doctors puzzle at the fact that he broke neither his neck nor his back, a phenomenon which they can only attribute to his outstanding muscular mass and physical development"
he guest posed at a contest I was in many many years ago... his calves were the freakiest things I have ever seen... so incredible! He was a bit smooth then but still amazing looking
The greatest bodybuilding physique of all time. It is the worst failure of that sport that he didn't turn pro. He should have won in '84 and in '85 and in '86, but his physique was too much in advance: he had a physique of the 90s (minus the bloated midsection), and the judges couldn't cope with that!
HIS BODY LOOKS JAY CUTLERS 2001 MRO! AMAZING (legs a little smaller) A 2000 PHYSIQUE LOST IN 80'S TOO BAD. He had the PERFECT FACE! Beautiful. If he had got his PRO CARD! JOE WIEDER would have made him a GOD!
Matt works up the street from me here in Denver, CO. My girlfriend see's him every for weeks for Neurological adjustments. He is now 46 or 47 I am pretty sure. My ex-girlfriend dated Matt from 2001 to early 2005. Its a small world after all.

Matt had insane genetics except his biceps. Which still had a long way to go.
Matt i understand had a cocaine problem but that was rumored. But i think he just didnt have the drive like say a Rich Gaspari.

Had a problem holding water as he approached contest condition. Had he sorted that out he would have been a multiple "O" winner.

Matt did not like the life style of being a probodybuilder in CA. Was too much of a struggle to juggle it all. One of the good guys of bodybuilding.

Another blend of great face and perfect body. In his late forties, I'll bet he still looks sensational.
