Injury Shakes Rodeo World: Mauney Bids Farewell to Bull Riding
After a costly neck injury at a rodeo last week the legend J.B. Mauney releases a heartbreaking statement about the future of his career

After 1,000 bulls rode and $7 million won, the legendary 36-year-old bull rider J.B. Mauney has been forced to retire due to an injury.

Mauney got bucked off his bull in Lewiston, Idaho on Sep 6, landing on his head, which caused him to break his neck. He was already competing with a broken foot. His neck injury required the removal of a disk, as well as placing a rod, plates and screws.

He released a statement on Facebook stating:
"Unfortunately with the surgery it ended my bull riding career, just wanted to let everyone know that I’m ok and on the road to recovery," wrote Mauney.

Mauney had conquered so many bulls in both the Professional Bull Riding and Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. He had the nickname “Dragonslayer” because that’s what he did, slayed dragons (well rode the best bulls there ever were for eight seconds).
