Josh Palmer will be returning to action on November 11th against Imran Khan at Showdown 12 in Sheffield, Ireland. The event will take place at the Sheffield Octagon Centre.

Palmer has not competed since dropping a close decision to Panicus Yousf at the Siam Warriors eight man tournament in Cork, Ireland earlier this year. Palmer, who fights out of Halifax, Nova Scotia, is considered one of the best Muay Thai talents in North America. Khan trains out of Bad Company gym and should prove to be a tough opponent for Palmer. This is definitely a solid fight for both fighters and the fans should be in for a treat.
