Who did gladiators battle?
I guess you are referring to Tigris of Gaul. He fought with a sword. Tigris of Gaul was a gladiator who was "undefeated". However, he was defeated by Maximus Meridius. Tigris faced the ex-general Maximus Meridius in the Colosseum in 180 AD. He was announced as "The only undefeated Gladiator" by the host of the games, Cassius. The match was unfair for Maximus, because the emperor Commodus sent three tigers to attack him and kill because he hated him. Tigris was stabbed in the foot by Maximus, who was bleeding after slaying a tiger. Leaning down, blood came from his mask's mouth and he collapsed to the ground. The audience wanted Maximus to kill the "undefeated" defeated Gladiator, but Maximus mercifully spared the Gladiator. This earned him the title "Maximus the merciful" from the crowd and angered Commodus.

Did gladiators usually fight to the death?
It depends on at what time they were fighting. At the start of the gladiatorial contests in very early Rome, no, they fought to the death. But as the years went on and the gladiators became professionalized and the crowds were demanding more and more pairs of fighters, yes, the gladiators survived, at least most of them. It cost a lot of money to train and feed and equip a gladiator and the owners of the schools were not about to see half of their investments killed off everytime they contracted for a bout. If a loser fought bravely he was often spared, but would get no prize money.
