"Fine figure of a man!" is an English equivalent of the Italian phrase Bel pezzo d'uomo!

Specifically, the masculine adjective bel is "beautiful, fine, handsome, nice". The masculine noun pezzo means "part, piece, slice, specimen". The preposition di* means "of". The masculine noun uomo translates as "man".

The pronunciation will be "bel-PET-tso DWO-mo" in Italian.

*The vowel drops -- and is replaced by an apostrophe -- before a noun whose spelling begins with a vowel.
