Ivan Gene Lebell was born in Los Angeles, California. He started training from childhood, influenced by his mother, "Red Head" Aileen Eaton, a promoter of boxing and professional wrestling. LeBell took up catch wrestling under Ed "Strangler" Lewis at 7, also learning boxing under "Sugar" Ray Robinson, but three years later he moved to judo. After getting his black belt, he went to Japan to train at the Kodokan school, where he was considered an outstanding student.

He is of one quarter Irish and three quarters Italian descent. Rogan's father, a police officer in Newark, has not been in contact with him since Rogan was six years old. He briefly attended the University of Massachusetts Boston.
A gene is a locus (or region) of DNA that encodes a functional RNA or protein product, and is the molecular unit of heredity. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits. Most biological traits are under the influence of polygenes (many different genes) as well as the gene–environment interactions. Some genetic traits are instantly visible, such as eye colour or number of limbs, and some are not, such as blood type, risk for specific diseases, or the thousands of basic biochemical processes that comprise life.
Genes can acquire mutations in their sequence, leading to different variants, known as alleles, in the population. These alleles encode slightly different versions of a protein, which cause different phenotype traits. Colloquial usage of the term "having a gene" (e.g., "good genes," "hair colour gene") typically refers to having a different allele of the gene. Genes evolve due to natural selection or survival of the fittest of the alleles.

This is ridiculously great in every way. Even if you don't know the greatness of "Judo" Gene Lebell, I think you'll want to see this. I don't even have to explain who Gene is to you; the theme song of this tape is "THE LEGEND OF GENE LEBELL," so I think you're covered. "Judo" Gene shows us, the lucky viewers, a variety of finishing maneuvers including the dreaded DOUBLE OUCH. Poor Mando Guerrero! Make sure to stick around for the big finish- GENE LEBELL VS. THE BIG TEN. Silly, ridiculous and great. Get a handle on a willing partner and try some holds, BUT BE CAREFUL. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_LeBell
