Tim explained it well. It's a common pattern when criticizing someone: "You're a big (something)". For example, "You're a big baby!", "You're a big liar!" "You're a big dope!", "You're a big know-it-all!".

It means that he may be a grown man but is acting like an immature little girl (not very manly). It isn't a nice thing to say but is usually said for a reason.
