Taylor, 39, has made no secret of her desire to fight in the stadium before she retires.

The Irishwoman has not boxed since her trilogy victory over Amanda Serrano in New York’s Madison Square Garden last summer but has indicated she wants one final fight in Dublin this year before hanging up her gloves.

A two-weight undisputed champion, Taylor has fought twice in the Irish capital before, both at the 3Arena against Chantelle Cameron after attempts to secure Croke Park fell through, with security costs offered as a reason.

However, Hearn feels the time is right to try again and says he and his team will “do everything we can to make it happen”.

“There’s massive public demand and momentum for this to happen,” he added.

“Katie Taylor has made it clear she wants to fight one final time. She has done everything in the sport you can do: she’s European amateur champion, world amateur, Olympic gold medallist, world champion, unified champion and undisputed champion.

“She’s sold out Madison Square Garden, boxed at Wembley Stadium, the Millennium Stadium, so this is the moment Irish sport stops and pays homage to not just one of the greatest people of all time, but one of the greatest athletes ever to come out of Ireland.

“She deserves this so much and we’ll do everything we can to make it happen.”
