MattM Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 At the ESPY's he ended up with the Top Male Athlete with a Disability Award and one of the most respected honors of the night the Jimmy V (Jim Valvano) Award for Perseverance. For those who haven't watched it here Jimmy V's inspirational ESPY speech shortly before his death from cancer. The guy may have promoted the roundball sport, but he also had a great message about life. It's fitting that Robles, with his positive outlook on lifes challenges, would receive the reward named in Valvano's honor.

1oldwrestler Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I hope TripleB didn't watch this year's ESPYs. He might of put his foot thru his t.v. when Robles came on. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
