Professional career
Kauffman made his professional debut in 2006.
On December 5, 2008, Kauffman made his national TV debut with a third round knockout of once-beaten Malachy Farrell on ShoBox: The New Generation. Kauffman followed that performance up with a pair of early knockouts against clubfighters Cliff Couser and southpaw Livin Castillo.
In 2009, he was knocked out by Tony Grano. Kauffman asked Grano for a rematch but was turned down several times. He then fought Mike Miller, winning a shut-out unanimous decision. Then he knocked out Ohio's hard-punching Chris Koval in a two-round destruction and picked up the WBF intertitle.
He signed a promotional agreement with Empire Sports and Entertainment. He was released by Empire and then re-signed with the same promoter in 2012 under a different name: Greg Cohen Promotions.
Kauffman was then 21-1 with 16 KOs. On December 17, 2010, he fought Ross Thompson and won by DQ. He then fought Sean Williams, who he KO'd in 1 round. Kauffman fought Charles Davis, winning a 7-round UD, stopped due to rain. In February 2013, Kauffman vs Willie Perryman ended in a 2-round KO win that put Kauffman to 24-1, 18 KOs. At that time, he was rated 14th by the WBA.
Kauffman won an 8-round UD over Arron Lyons in August 2013. Then, in September 2013 Kauffman beat Stacy Frazier in 2 short rounds, breaking Frazier's ribs, to move to 26-1, 19 KOs, and ranked 10th by the WBA.
Kauffman fought Jason Barnett on November 30, 2013, breaking his ribs in 1 round for a KO win and the WBU inter heavyweight title.
Kauffman took on Vincent Thompson on January 25, 2014, out-working him over 10 rounds and winning the WBA federation title that became Kauffman's 3rd minor belt. Kauffman is currently on a 10-fight win streak. Also, Kauffman has started to work with trainer Nassim Richardson and has help from Al Cole, a former cruiserweight title holder. Kauffman, now 30, is moving up the ranks of the WBA, looking to get into the top 5 with his latest win.
