Does all the dirty work for boxer's soul mate
I believe the answer is:
dogsbody
'does all the dirty work' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'boxer's soul mate' is the wordplay.
'boxer's' becomes 'dogs' (I've seen this in other clues).
'soul mate' becomes 'body' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'dogs'+'body'='DOGSBODY'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dogsbody that I've seen before include "One who has to do all the boring jobs" , "Go by odds to find menial worker" , "Drudge" , "found in pets' cemetery?" , "One given menial tasks" .)
