 The Miami Beach Convention Center
has had a colorful history during the last fifty years.
In 1968 the Convention Center was the
site of the Republican National Convention, then again in 1972 the
Center saw both the Republican and Demcratic Conventions return to
the Beach. And back in 1964, a young Cassius Clay defeated Sonny
Liston for the Heavyweight Championship of the World.
