Bold outlaw (9)
I believe the answer is:
desperado
'bold outlaw' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for desperado that I've seen before include "Reckless outlaw" , "Reckless person" , "Wild ruffian" , "reckless type" , "Road speed (anag.)" .)
