What does _toiunoha_ mean in this context? It doesn't make much sense to me.

question
grammar meaning
What does というのは mean right after a name?
This would simply mean "Yoshiyama-kun is..." but it is used to emphasize this
person/compare, maybe in relation to previous sentence it would make sense. It
is written like "This man, Yoshiyama, is...".
