This man is said to have been the strongest of all men. -or-
He is said....

Either is correct.

Just FYI: It can*not* be "It is said that this man/he...." because then "he" would be included in the indirect statement part of the sentence, and, as the subject of an indirect statement, it would be in the accusative ("hoc"), and "validissimus" would have to follow suit and be "validissimum."
