Early Life and Passion for Boxing
Born in Camaguey, Cuba in the late 1950s, Mario Salazar-Cruz faced significant adversity and loss from an early age.

In this new environment, Mario encountered prejudice and struggled to find acceptance. Boxing became his passion at age eleven when he received his first pair of gloves.
