I have no doubt that individuals with larger and more defined muscles could lift more weight, but it is pretty much possible that people with normal, average muscles could endure longer to carry some weight they can lift, better then overmuscular people by carrying the same weight.
That's because huge muscle are also huge consumers of oxygen water and nutrients. Because of that tpeople whose muscles are too big coud easily get out of breath. Despite their look, they are pretty often bad workers for carrying bags, crates and similar jobs.
Some guy working in a construction materilas storage told me that some bodybuilders tried to work there, but cant last the whole 8 hours shift due to lack of breath and thirst despite drinking water all the time.
