This. Society already glorifies sociopathy enough, theres no need for making a media circus of killing.
If you enjoy people getting bludgeoned to death go track down the video called "3 guys 1 hammer" watch it and see if you still like it. If you do please jump of a building at least 10 floors high.

Dude. They can't even use the death penalty (needle/chair) correctly without executing innocent people.
I mean, does somebody who gives the rapist of family member a beatdown and accidentally causes them to have a heart attack and die a deliberate murderer who should fight child rapists in an arena?
And come to think of it, is a 19 year old who wakes up next to a 17 year old after a party a rapist who should be killed by your standards?
Just sayin', things aren't always clearcut.

Oh, and we throw you in the ring first because you unknowingly slept with a 17-year old at a party last week.

Consenting adults should be able to do whatever the fuck they want
Would I watch it?
Fuck yes. The shit that went on in the Roman Colosseum was the best fucking entertainment mankind has ever known.

 You're either really ignorant when it comes to classical history, or you fit into the apparently growing category of latent sociopaths.

The Romans fucking LOVED it.
I do disagree with forcing it on people though. But with CONSENTING people GAME THE FUCK ON!

Yes. You are aware though that the actual voluntary gladiator performances were only a minor fraction of what went down in Roman theaters, right? It's pretty well documented, among which having unarmed or very lightly armed Christians struggle to a certain death under the attack of wild animals or gladiators. You're right though, the Romans loved it! Good for them. Too bad that apparently, the retarded streak in their culture still sounds through in our's.

I'm saying many would see it. Not because they are sociopaths butfrom curiosity and a kick. It's sick but true. I personally would denounce it completely

Would you still denounce it even if the participants were people who chose to be there completely understanding the conditions?

You're too optimistic when it comes to the capacity of many people to make good decisions. It's a matter of time before the first guy 'consents' and then it turns out he was slightly dimwitted and may not have understood the concept until it was too late. The penal system is a great source of examples of this sort of thing. This is just one argument against the scheme you proposed (and it should be enough), but several others can be thought of.
