Huo Yuanjia's real fame came when, in 1901, he responded to leaflets advertising a challenge by a wrestler from Russia in Xiyuan Park, Tianjin, where Huo Yuanjia had already won many victories. The wrestler had openly insulted the Chinese, calling them "Asian weaklings" and the "Weak Men of the East" because no one would accept his challenge to a fight. When Yuanjia accepted his challenge, the Russian, who claimed to be the strongest man in the world, forfeited.

Huo Yuanjia then asked the Russian if he would write an apology in the newspaper, which the Russian reportedly obliged.
