It looks like a normal looking fig. I agree with all the advice given above.

In the San Joaquin Valley (California), the Indians carried figs from the Missions up the rivers, planting trees as they went. Now those trees (or their children) growing along the rivers sometimes take up acres and look like giant jungle jims. My kids spent hours when they were young climbing through the tangle of branches.

If you want it to look like a tree, eventually those bottom branches will have to go. But be patient.
