Pugilist (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boxer

'pugilist' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for boxer that I've seen before include "Pug - dog" , "Asian rebel" , "one that's accustomed to fighting" , "Prizefighter" , "Pugilist - dog" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Guardian, The Times, the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Independent.
