MICAH RICHARDS wants to fight the winner between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson after training with Kate Abdo’s husband.
The former Manchester City defender was taken on the boxing pads by coach and ex-fighter Malik Scott, who married presenter Abdo in September.

Richards fires off combinations to the surprise of his CBS panel including Jamie Carragher and Thierry Henry.
Host Abdo asks: “Very nice. Misfits Boxing? Celebrity fight, will that be calling for you?
“Have we got any beef with anyone we can settle? Let’s make some money.”
Richards, 36, replied: “Jake Paul’s fighting Mike Tyson, isn’t he? So, I’m next. Iron Mike Jr is what they’re calling me.”
But Arsenal legend Henry warned: “Be careful what you wish for.”
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, 27, faces heavyweight boxing icon Tyson, 58, on November 15 in a controversial clash.
Tyson has not fought professionally since 2005 and was forced out of the original July 20 fight after suffering an ulcer flare up in his stomach.
But he has been deemed medically fit to resume training and will undergo additional brain and heart exams ahead of the fight.

Paul, who is 10-1 as a boxer, spoke out amid criticism of the bout, which will be Netflix’s first live boxing event.
He told the Daily Mail: “I would say say it to Mike Tyson’s face and see what happens.
“Mike does what Mike wants to do, and he’s the one that you know wanted to make this a pro fight.
“He’s still wanting to do it, and he believes he can beat my ass truly behind the scenes.
“To him, age is just a number, and he does look athletic, he does look strong, and he does look good on the mitts so we’ll see how it translates to the ring.”
