They did change. The first use of gladiators was at funerals, but it became so popular that it eventually became larger with a wider audience. Large arenas were built to hold games, there were training schools, and men who were taken alive in wars became gladiators. It was a big business for the wealthy of Rome to own or have an investment in a school. At it's peak gladiators had sea battles and fought wild animals as well as each other. Bets were made on who would win and some gladiators won fame and freedom ( though not many).

Silver Wars
Gladiators are from Ancient Rome.
the gladiators would fight different kinds of Gladiators or other animals
The gladiators were not held at the colosseum, they just fought there. They lived in gladiatorial schools. The number of gladiators who fought there changed depending on how the gladiatorial games were organised. In 65 BC Julius Caesar transformed what used to be private combats as part of funerary rites (numera) into public games. He had 320 pairs gladiators fight in silver armour. When emperors organised the games, they could be on a large scale. Trajan was said to have celebrated his victory in the Dacian Wars with 10,000 gladiators fighting over 123 days.
