Most gladiators were simply slaves, prisoners of war sold into the business. Citizens who committed serious crimes might have their franchisement revoked, be made into slaves and then sent to the arenas or combat schools. Such crimes would include harsher offences like rape or murder, or crimes against the state (treason). Slaves could be committed to the arenas for only specific crimes, most likely similar to the above and for things such as stealing - assaulting a citizen or otherwise harming one would be almost certainly a direct death sentence, potentially carried out by putting them against wild animals unarmed.

What are high crimes?
In the constitution, it only specifies treason and bribery, and then says "and other high crimes." So, these seem to be very serious crimes involving corruption or betraying the country in some way. (It should be noted that this does not refer to a policy that one political party opposes; words like "treason" and "betrayal" are thrown around a lot in political rhetoric, but the Founding Fathers seem to refer to specific acts of corruption, or perhaps to selling out one's country the way a spy does.)
