Minister of State for Sport Jack Chambers insists his "door is open" to help Katie Taylor's bid to stage her re-match with Amanda Serrano at Croke Park.
World champion Taylor's phenomenal victory on points over Serrano at Madison Square Garden led to immediate calls for a re-match in October.
Eddie Hearn, the Bray boxer's promoter, said that it would be "a shame" if Taylor didn't get the chance to fight in Dublin as a professional.
