Crossword Genius

Another heavy weight, individual best (6-2-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

second to none

'best' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'another heavy weight individual' is the wordplay.
'another' becomes 'second'.
'heavy weight' becomes 'ton' (a ton weighs a lot).
'individual' becomes 'one' (an individual is one person).
'second'+'ton'+'one'='SECOND-TO-NONE'

(Other definitions for second to none that I've seen before include "Outstanding" , "Incomparable" , "Pre-eminent" , "Woodwind instrument" , "certain champion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
