Bit late today (3HR 20 min) so maybe the return from NZ to KL via Coolangatta will be different http://flightaware.com/live/flight/XAX206

Looks like they trimmed time in Auckland and back close to timetable.

On Monday 3 July 2017 AirAsiaX A333 9M-XXP, with its image of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao on its rear, departed Coolangatta 10:10am on AirAsia X 9602 charter with the boxer’s group back to General Santos City, Philippines. Flight time 6h 9m for the 2,635 nm trip. TV news showed it arriving in Brisbane, with the special paintwork, a few days before the event and Ian Garton’s website showed it had made several trips through Coolangatta on regular trips since then.

The three AirAsiaX A333 at Coolangatta 3 July 2017 were; 9M-XXT XAX206/207 Kuala Lumpur / Coolangatta /Auckland / Coolangatta / Kuala Lumpur and 9M-XXF XAX200/201 Kuala Lumpur Coolangatta return plus the Filipino charter. All three were here together with 9M-XXF on runway departing 9:50 to Kuala Lumpur and 9M-XXT landing a few minutes before that. The charter A333 AirAsia X 9601 /9602 arrived 8:55 and left the runway airborne 10:10am.
This is an aviation forum so I’ll ignore that ‘sport’ event. Website image (Morris Biondi) photo of A333 9M-XXP with the boxer’s image on its rear https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/8632187
