Dalton has already achieved his dream of becoming world champion. Nobody can ever take that WBC green-and-gold belt away from him.

I know he dreams of fighting at Hillsborough and I understand exactly what that means. Winning the WBC title at Goodison Park, the former home of my beloved Everton, was my lifelong dream, which I achieved by knocking out Ilunga Makabu in 2016.

Dalton needs the right opponent for his own special night and to make him into a mainstream star.

There are huge names out there and Dalton is capable of competing with the very best. But for me, Azim would be the one.

There is nothing quite like a domestic rivalry and the atmosphere would be incredible. Two top British fighters, a genuine rivalry and promoters Hearn and Ben Shalom going at each other in the build-up.

Azim is lightning fast, possibly the quickest fighter in British boxing pound-for-pound. But timing beats speed, and that’s what makes this rivalry so fascinating.

I’d love Azim to win a world title first, then they could meet in a unification fight. It could even become a trilogy.

But beating Puello is no formality and Dalton cannot afford to lose focus. Then we can start dreaming about Azim and Hillsborough.

Tony Bellew was speaking to BBC Sport boxing journalist Kal Sajad.
