I heard that most gladiator matches in Rome were between people of the same school. Because they knew and trained with their opponent they were able to put on a better show without striking mortal blows. Seeing you fight you coach vs everyone else demonstrates this I feel. You guys know each others style so well that your able to effectively counter and defend against each other.
I like to imagine the gladiators being like the modern celebrity athletes. Gladiator related merchandise dedicated to specific fighters, like figures and trading card being sold near the colosseum. That's why I really like Asterix and Disney's Hercules more than any hollywood action slop targeted to adults, because in the cartoons and comic books, the characters are more human.
Oh hey thats me in green at the beginning, the real score including your missed calls should have been 10-8, as they missed your pommel strike, as well as a strike to my head at the last engagement
Awesome fight! Ps: sorry its the second time I have to ask you something cold you please tell me the name of the melody that starts at 7:23? I really trie to find this music for Years now!!!
How heavy is your Dao? Mine is an Iron Tiger Forge Liuyedao and it is 35"1/4 long and 2lbs 4.1 oz. I have trouble trying to pull extended combos with it.

That's the thing about gladiators, people nowadays see it more as a fight, and less as a sport. Also losing a gladiator was really expensive.
