I can only assume that they either got him to post it because he has a much wider reach or they didn't want to say it themselves in case it looked disrespectful. Maybe he is involved but I think he just rates him and wants to see him active which we all do so all good.
I have no problem with the fight when he is at 10-0 and it can be built to the NZ public but right now Kiki needs another decent scalp plus the biggest issue is there is not the finance in the fight to make it viable right at the moment.
I guess he did say on notice to be fair rather than we want you next month.
I don't see Dave taking meaningful fights at heavy in the future though.
Another way of looking at this situation is what you are saying is the old school way Mark yet the new school know they can boost their profile in the social media age by chucking a few fights that are probably never going to happen or are a long way from happening. I don't have a huge problem with it but as the old story goes be careful what you wish for as you may back yourself into a corner or lose the respect of your supporters if you go calling too much but don't back it up.
