He was a high school wrestler and is an avid boxing fan. He also commentates professional boxing fights.
A DNA test whose results were displayed on the show Extra (2013) stated that Mario’s genetic ancestry includes Indigenous American, Spanish, and British.
He is a devout Catholic, and underwent baptism by immersion at the Jordan River.
Mario’s mother’s surname is Trasvina.
Correction. He has english ancestry as well. There’s a youtube video of him and his wife getting DNA results from a genealogist from ancestry. In the video the genealogist said the English ancestry was from the last 200 years.
Actually, she explicitly stated that it was BEFORE 200 years ago. Beh.
