Fight off (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

repulse

'fight off' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for repulse that I've seen before include "Repel" , "kick in the teeth" , "Battlecruiser" , "Cause to feel intense aversion" , "Rudely reject" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
