As a former 'professional' (sadly I laughed while typing that) gamer, I can attest that most of the competition out there is very much out of shape. Not necessarily overweight, but reliant on junk food and stuck in a chair. World of Warcraft and MMO players are the worst. Generally FPS players tend to have some idea of fitness. There are the occasional exceptions. For example Sean Fanning (former Napster creator) competed at WoW and moved onto Jujitsu. I do Muay Thai and Jujitsu as well, and have some friends that still compete and work out regularly. Fatal1ty, the 'famous' gamer played tennis every day to keep his muscles sharp. Sadly, despite my twitch finger/eye reflexes on a controller, I'm a sitting duck when anyone throws a punch at me :( Those reaction times don't really translate to physical reactions.
