Catch punch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hook

This clue is a double definition.

'catch' is the first definition.
(I know that hook is a type of catch)

'punch' is the second definition.
(type of punch in boxing)

(Other definitions for hook that I've seen before include "Boxer's punch" , "Prostitute" , "Bent piece of metal for catching" , "stroke at Lord's?" , "leader of pirates" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
