Physically the guy is a beast, I agree with you that if he gets some training (especially in the ground game) he could be good but as it stands he is completely unworthy of the hype as far as MMA goes. I've decided his fame is based at least 50% on appearance. He's gigantic, ripped and has that freaky beard with a Mr. T haircut. He LOOKS like he shouldn't lose to anyone.
The guys he fights are bums. In fact Gannon was signed to a UFC fight after they saw him pummel Kimbo and Gannon was beat pretty easily in the octagon.
