A gladiator exhibition would perhaps be held once a year. The average was somewhere around three years and its not beyond a possibility that some gladiators went their entire five years of servitude without ever fighting, just as some Roman soldiers spent their entire 20 years in the army without ever being in a battle. Contrary to popular belief, gladiatorial combats were not every day occurrences, or weekly occurrences for that matter. Due to the expense involved, gladiatorial bouts were reserved for major public celebrations and memorials.

How did fighting arenas in ancient Rome work?

They had the fighting arena where the gladiator and animal would fight. They would starve the animal for 3 days so it would be starving, and keep it in the dark and then be thrusted out into the sunny arena.

Additionally, the crowd's reaction could further escalate the situation, leading to a loss of support from spectators and sponsors. Ultimately, refusal to fight could result in a grim fate for the gladiator.
