My bigger leg is always more fatigued..?

I had a couple of surgeries on my right leg about 25 years ago and my left leg is my dominant leg anyway. I have been frying my legs doing Hardcore and my left leg is getting more definition and feeling more worked every time and my right leg is technically doing the same workout and is keeping up exactly like its partner ;-), but it doesn't feel fatigued as much and the muscle isn't getting defined like the other side. Should I be working the right side harder than the left side? As far as I can tell, they are equally strong and equally able to endure. I wonder if I am relying on my left leg more than I realize in moves like squats and stepping? Anyone have any experience to pass along?
 
No advice, just that I have exactly the same issue--knee surgery 22 years ago on my right knee (hit by a car--so stupid:p ). My left leg, is bigger, more defined, and gets fatigued more easily (which does not make sense to me). My right and smaller leg does exactly the same work.

Hmmmm....Now you've got me wondering
