Fight to get beam (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spar

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fight' is the first definition.
(sparring is a kind of fighting)

'beam' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to get' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for spar that I've seen before include "Stout pole to support rigging" , "Raps with large timber" , "Raps with large beam" , "microcrystalline mineral?" , "possibly rigged" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
