Boldly resist (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

defy

'boldly resist' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for defy that I've seen before include "Challenge or resist" , "Resist (someone) openly" , "Brave" , "Go against (authority)" , "Flout" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times and The Times.
