We’re thrilled that the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission has approved Fighter’s Heaven for a new PA State Historical Marker. It is one of 24 new markers selected for the state. Since 1946, these historical markers have chronicled the people, places and events that have affected the lives of Pennsylvanians over the centuries.

In 1972 Muhammad Ali established this training camp, where he prepared for some of the biggest fights of his career, notably “Rumble in the Jungle” and “Thrilla in Manila.” Future heavyweight champions Larry Holmes, Tim Witherspoon and Eddie Mustafa Muhammad began their careers sparring here with Ali. He hosted many celebrities at Fighter's Heaven, including Andy Warhol, Diana Ross and Tom Jones, and gave his famous interview with Dick Cavett here.
