Becoming Taz: Writing from the Southpaw Stance by Jeff Bumpus is a memoir about pursuing a dream — of enduring the struggles, processing the failures, and learning how to assess the triumphs. Bumpus was a professional boxer from 1984 until 1993. During this time he continued working full-time as a saw operator, cutting countertops for mobile homes and RVs. He fought five world champions and several top contenders before retiring from the ring with a record of 30 wins (15 by knockout), 8 defeats, and one draw. Becoming Taz is a tale of youth filtered through the wisdom of middle age and told with the literate voice of a seasoned storyteller.
Bumpus left boxing with a record of 31-8-1 and caputured the Mid-West & Mid-American Super-Lightweight Titles in 1989.
