This is news to me, even though I have read a lot abot the Sistine Chapel and about Michelangelo. So for the time being I believe that Michelangelo had the first offer. Or rather, that Pope Julius more or less forced Michelangelo to do it. Before Michealangelo began his work the Chapel walls were a showcase for works of art by Ghirlandaio, Perugino, Signorelli and Botticelli. The Papal architect was Bramante who Michelangelo suspected of setting him up for failure due to poor scaffolding Bramante had built for the project.
