[Meaning] battling a second time. "He ordered him to come again, avenging in battle the first defeat."¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀναμαχούμενον· ἐκ δευτέρου μαχεσάμενον. ὁ δὲ ἐκέλευσεν αὐτὸν αὖθις ἥκειν ἀναμαχούμενον τὴν πρώτην ἧσσαν.

*)anamaxou/menon: e)k deute/rou maxesa/menon. o( de\ e)ke/leusen au)to\n au)=qis h(/kein a)namaxou/menon th\n prw/thn h(=ssan.

Likewise in ps.-Zonaras. The headword (presumably extracted from the quotation given) is the future participle, masculine accusative singular, of the verb a)nama/xomai.
Adler notes (but does not adopt) maxh/samenon rather than maxesa/menon as a manuscript variant for the glossing participle.
1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. ↩
