As as structure and present perfect tense
I have trouble understanding the meaning of the sentences below.
- He is as strong a man as I have ever seen.
- He is a man who is as strong as I have ever seen.
I know they have the same meaning but what is the meaning? Do they mean that "he is the most strong man I have ever seen" or "he is as strong as the strong men I have ever seen" or something else?

The first sentence means that you have never seen a man stronger than him. The second sentence seems inferior to the first.
- The first sentence means that you have never seen a man stronger than him.
- The second sentence seems inferior to the first.
