Peel claimed to have held the door open for Muhammad Ali on his 08 January 1988 (BFBS) show, it is not known when and where it happened: 'I once held the door open for Muhammad Ali. That's the end of that story really, that's all there is to it. I'd like to be able to tell you that he turned round and punched me in the face or gave me a florin or something, but nothing.'
