I'm only calling this a "mini" theory because I don't have enough evidence to support it. In fact, most of my evidence comes from the Volume 5 opening, which you can argue is stylized and non-canon.

But yeah, Hazel. Aside from Salem, I find him fascinating. When we saw him in Volume 4, he punched a ticket machine hard enough to leave--not a dent-- a crater in it.

Straying a little bit (because I don't have a good transition) the auras of the people of Remnant act as sort of a shield (among many other functions). It protects them from more serious injury until it breaks.

In Volume 1, Pyrrha said Jaune had unusually massive reserves of Aura. I'm gonna come back to that at the end.

We know, taking damage diminishes your aura. And, in the Volume 5 opening (see my comment at the start), we see Hazel blow blows from Ren bare-handed. He also fights bare-handed; he doesn't use a weapon (like Yang who has gauntlets).

Because of this, my theory is that Hazel, like Jaune, is an "Aura tank." He has massive reserves of Aura.

Thoughts?
