How long did it usually take for a gladiator to kill another gladiator?
I think it depends on what was the objective of the fight. Was it a battle to be re-enacted. Was it meant to last longer? Some were short and some were long and drawn out depending on who was fighting. Was the battle one on one, two on one? A fight fought by equals or one fought where one gladiator had the clear advantage. Some deaths were quick, some death's were slow....Kinda like wrestling today. Anything to please the crowd. Sometimes the crowd wanted a quick and bloody death, sometime they wanted a slow drawn out mutilated death is my guess.
