Crossword Genius

Heavyweight with boy or girl (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alison

'girl' is the definition.
(girl's name)

'heavyweight with boy' is the wordplay.
'heavyweight' becomes 'ali' (I've seen this before).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'boy' becomes 'son' (synonyms).
'ali'+'son'='ALISON'

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for alison that I've seen before include "female" , "Girl" , "woman" , "lady" , "Girl's name" .)
