I didnt seen on TV Joe Frazier's Last fight, what was his motive to comeback, does he intend to challenge Larry Holmes and suffer the same fate of his greatest rival Ali was against Holmes? and his opponent, Jumbo Cummings, the guy never reached the contender status nor earned a title shot, I think there are better and attractive opponents for smokin joe in his comeback bid like Reynaldo snipes and James Tillis or even former champ John Tate.

It's been awhile, but I remember reading an interview with Frazier at the time and he was generally unimpressed with the state of the heavyweight division. He didn't come back with a specific fight or guy in mind, I think he just wanted to test the waters and go from there fight by fight.
