Name just one heavyweight (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anton

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'name just' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'one heavyweight' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'an' (an apple is one apple).
'heavyweight' becomes 'ton' (a ton weighs a lot).
'an'+'ton'='ANTON'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for anton that I've seen before include "..... Chekov" , "man" , "Boy" , "- Chekhov, playwright" , "Chekhov maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
