WATCH THE CLIP
The 35-year-old not only turned down the opportunity, but followed it up by asking to compare hand sizes on the desk. At that point, the entire desk had a laugh, and Richards explained himself in a clear and concise way.

Richards had previously participated in an arm wrestling contest live on-air for CBS, where the media outlet pit the ex-Manchester City man as a representative for England against ex-USMNT star Oguchi Onyewu. The American defender defeated Richards within seconds, and now, it appears the pundit has retired from shenanigans of a similar matter.
