The undisputed light-welterweight champion has not fought since she won her trilogy fight with Amanda Serrano in New York last July.
On Wednesday, the 39-year-old Irishwoman mentioned she remains hopeful her swansong fight will take place at Croke Park.
“I just want to fight in Dublin to end my career,” she told RTE.
“Obviously we’re still hoping for Croke Park, we’re hanging on to a bit of hope that it can happen.
“If it doesn’t happen there are plenty of options there. I have obviously fought in the 3Arena a couple of times, the Aviva Stadium is also there.
“Croke Park would the top of the list.”
