He's still a little boyish in his physique....he'll grow and become stronger over the next few years, and when he does he will become very good. Hall has only been stopped by noted heavy hitters, so I don't think that not stopping him is that big a deal for Saunders.
I think he should have stopped the smaller exposed Hall and it just reconfirmed his lack of power. Like ross, I believe he'll be found wanting up in class due to a lack of strength.

Can't believe they said he might move up in weight either, surely he should be trying the opposite?
