Robo-Gladiators

While the section on Robo-Gladiators plays to the common view of Roman gladiators as fighting to the death, the reality is "professional" gladiators were rarely killed in the arena as it took a lot of time and money to train a gladiator to where they would put on a "good" performance and the same would be true of robots.
Now "amateur" gladiators (usually ones who committed a crime) were a different story and if it is possible for robots to commit crimes then they could be sent to the arena for a chance (abet a very small one) to fight for their freedom.
