Virtual posedown: winklaar vs. rühl

[EG News]

They seem more myth than man. And yet they’re made of esh— mounds of it—and every September at the Orleans Arena at least one of them can be viewed in his natural habitat, firing off ferocious shots, often with a beastly growl.

Their sightings are so rare that it’s unlikely to witness two of them battling, even at the Mr. Olympia, just as the memory of King Kong was fading when Godzilla rampaged.
