“I Taught Him”: Bull Riding Icon Dale Brisby Takes on JB Mauney, Issuing a Challenge to Master the Legendary Rider’s Signature Move

The legendary American cowboy JB Mauney has felt waves of success like none has. When Justin McBride established his saying, “he is in a class of his own, the best bull rider of his generation”, the world felt it. Unfortunately, a neck-breaking incident in Idaho forced him to retire, but he’s still well-connected to the bull-riding world.

In 2021, Mauney looked past the PBR season to try his hands at PRCA. Having said so, he wished to secure a position at the NFR as a debutant. Although he announced his unlikely retirement, he couldn’t cut ties with his good friend Dale Brisby. Both co-hosting the Vegas Rodeo, walked back to reminisce about an iconic moment.

Bull riding legend JB Mauney faces a jab

Spending most of his career in PBR, Mauney decided to transition to PRCA, when he was rooting for an NFR win. But unfortunately, despite his win in run 1, he failed to qualify for run 2, following an 87.5 finish. But that’s not the concern of the rodeo phenom Dale Brisby. Sharing a rare clip of his 36-year-old friend and co-host, Brisby’s roast-like comment said, “He pulls out an old move out of his hate, we like to call in the Biz Dosapatas, that means two feet….it’s an old move that I taught him.“

The grainy clip caught Mauney at his best. However, he faced a jab from his comrade. Their fellow host Kadee Coffman seemed to enjoy the situation. So, to amp up the conversation a little, she asked, “If you would have ridden that bull better, is there anything you would have done different?” In response, the bull riding gypsy soul said, “I probably would have pulled that inside foot a little quicker.“

Brisby acknowledges Mauney

Handling bulls is a cakewalk to JB Mauney. So, in Brisby’s podcast, he took the responsibility to bring the 39-year-old’s expertise to the public. Said, “The world doesn’t realise, you know, how much thought, and time and effort you put into every time bucking bulls. Cause potentially, they’re worth so much money.”
