Tom is correct.
The leaner you are when you diet the more muscle can be lost.

Fat guys that are lets say 30% bodyfat lose very high percentage of bodyfat compared to the leaner guys.

But the leaner guys will gain more muscle when bulking than their fatter counterparts.

John Bernardie(sp) did a really nice article on this and used some formula that used your percent of bodyfat and some other factors to determine bulking lean gains and dieting fat percentage losses.

I will see if I can dig that one up, it is a killer read.
