Where did christians fight gladiators?
The Christians did not fight gladiators. Gladiators were professional athletes and there would be no point in them fighting (mostly) unskilled Christians. The closest to an actual gladiatorial fight would be when a condemned man, either a Christian or any other criminal, was given a sword and made to fight an opponent in the arena. If the condemned man won, another fighter was sent out against him, and this was repeated until the first man was killed.

How old did you have to be to become a galdiator in ancient rome?
There was no actual age limit on being a gladiator. What a man had to have was size. A scrawny teenager would certainly be no match for a hefty thirty year old. When a man filled out, say, around his early twenties, then he would be allowed to fight in the arena, although as a teen he could have been training with his weapons.
