If it helps, I've done some amateur boxing. So, I've had to take some good punches (plus at my weight class, you fight some beastly guys).

If those stats are legit then I'd say that you wouldn't be at a significant disadvantage physically, though your 40 time is as others have said a bit high for arena.

Not that repeating it necessarily makes it more trustworthy but the stats are legit.

For the bench press, I actually haven't tried repping out as many as possible at 225 in a while (I did the 225 x 26 about a year ago). But, I recently pressed 385 x 4 in a set, putting my max around 420-440. So, I should be at least as strong as I was before. Plus, I do lots of crazy exercises that push your stabilizing muscles (because how often does a clean bench press motion carry over into a sport).

One thing I know I have to work on is my agility. I suspect I wouldn't have a good 3-cone time for example.
