Bounder showing angora creat­ion — knockout all round (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kangaroo

'bounder' is the definition.
(animal which bounds around)

'angora creation knockout all round' is the wordplay.
'creation' indicates anagramming the letters.
'knockout' becomes 'KO' (abbreviation).
'all round' is an insertion indicator.
'angora' is an anagram of 'angaro'.
'angaro' placed inside 'ko' is 'KANGAROO'.

'showing' is the link.

(Other definitions for kangaroo that I've seen before include "Native marsupial Down Under" , "Large Australian mammal" , "Aussie boxer" , "Pouched mammal" , "Hopping marsupial" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
