PBR World Champion J.B. Mauney surprised 14-year-old Juan Salinas at Ryan Dirteater's Roping For Wishes event in 2016. Salinas overcame a battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma and made wish through Make-a-Wish Oklahoma to one day meet Mauney.
Me and my husband saw j.b at a has station and he is a down to earth person. He stood and talked to us for about a hour. He is just like everyone else. He has never let his fame get to him. Ride on cowboy. As he said he puts his pants on like everyone else. He's a humble person
I also defeated stage 4 Hodgkin's lymphoma. I've been in remission for 16 years now. YOU KEEP FIGHTING JUAN. Great job bud! To J.B. bare down cowboy! Keep riding
Tough guys are not supposed to cry, but damn if this didn't make me tear. What a real hero J.B. is. Talked to the young man on his level with everything he said to him. Much respect!!
How on God's green earth can someone not appreciate this, for what that 14yr old did to beat cancer and to have a man he admires tell him that he (JB) was honered to meet him WOW! CONGRATULATIONS KID, YOU'RE SOMEONE I LOOK UP TO NOW!! KEEP FIGHTING THE FIGHT 💖
This video brought me to tears, which doesn't happen very often. But when J.B. started talking to him it just came a flowing, J.B. is a GREAT BULLRIDER and an even better Man!!
JB is such a nice dude. He did something similar for two little boys who'd lost their father to cancer. Their dad had been a bullrider and they really looked up to JB. Nice guy, nice looking.....his wife and kids are lucky people! Congrats to Juan for beating that horrid cancer; my 17 year old daughter recently went into remission from her's. No child should ever have to go through this. I hope to God they find a cure someday. Kids should be able to live a full life before worrying about getting sick.
I look up to you, Juan! Do good things in your life and I hope its a long one! J.B. is my favorite bull rider and he's a good man. To both of you, keep fighting the good fight$
JB a two time world champ with over 500 Qualified rides and more than 70 times making 95.25 points told that kid that he was tougher than any bull he’d ever rode. The respect I have for that man only increased way beyond what I had before because he’s such an outstanding man the kindness he displays is what America is made of. Good tough hard working men that are genuine and soft spoken people hats off to the champ 💫💫💫
i didn't realize that someone was cutting onions... Good on you Juan!!! keep fighting bro!!!, and JB...you're the real deal...salt of the earth as they say
I appreciate the parents of that young man as well, everytime JB asked him a question he replied with “yes sir” something that I see slipping away more and more nowadays is manners and respect
Thanks for sharing this wonderful amazing video, my son is a amateur bull rider and his dream being a bull rider and a big fan of JBMooney. I seeing mr. JB making kids wishes come true. May this video can be shared with all PBR officials and fans around the world. Happy to see this kind of video. Thanks for sharing
JB is top notch at riding bulls and just being a good human in general. Love that guy! He may not have as many titles as Tuff (who I also respect) but is by far my favorite rider in PBR history.
It’s heartwarming when young kids like that show respect by saying yes sir no sir yes ma’am no ma’am. When I was young if you didn’t say it you would pick yourself up off the floor. To bad all the kids aren’t like that young man.
God Bless JB and all the good Bull Riders. Life is all about caring and loving each other. Thank you Jesus for your healing powers may this boy and all the children with cancer be cured. ❣
Make a wish and JB are class acts all the way around. Congrats on fighting off cancer, Juan. Now you just have to figure out what your third wish is. =)
When j.b said i admire you. Thats a great man and the i put my pants on just like you just to show he's no different and he can do grwat things also. Go get em son .
