Best Answer

The people who gave up their freedom to become gladiators were Roman citizens, not freedmen. It is thought that they might have been poor people who were after being housed and fed in the gladiatorial schools, the earnings (successful gladiators received prize money and donations from rich people) and fame (successful gladiators were revered).
