Romans built a building known as the colloseum. This was were gladiators trained, preformed and got paid. Human vs Human was exciting and barbaric. New champions could be declared every week. If humans have rights then surely they should be able to battle each other to the death? Footballers (soccer players) get paid £1000s each match and when they fall over they cry. So many people would want to join the colloseum and beat up someone htye dont like. Ok maybe battle to the death is a bit extreme, but think how many people would want to fight someone they hate and get paid for it, I know i would. It could be a televised event making even more money like sports such as Boxing and wrestling. Even celebrity endoresments could make a huge impact.

Whats your opinion on this?

Ugh........ It's like saying to houses "go find a murderer and kill that family again". Why want to repeat the awful?

yea you know the Colosseum (not 2 "l"s get it right) was for prisoners of war and rapid beasts to duke it out right... Plus there is a thing called UFC. It's not that wrestling bull crap, its the real deal. Or just watch Muay Thai.

UFC is good but it doesnt bring in the same aspect that the collosseum uses (yes i used two "l"s) Ufc is a controlled sport where breakups and submissions are used (to put it in another way, mat wrestling) I know smart people like you wont be for this argument but thats ok. Just so you know im 15 years old so im no where near as clever as you could be so when i make a mistake get over it.

No, I'm serious, go watch muay thai, when I started it over the summer, I bruised 2 rips, broke 3 of my fingers in the first week.

It gets really really bloody.

I know muay thai, A man called tony ja im sure you know is awesome at muay thai and so is the brazilian training camp which i watch on the internet from time to time which many of them are in UFC now. The roman collosseum is completely different which you cant disagree with. Imagine the publicity and outrage it would cause, it would take the mind of other things going on at the moment such as global warming and approaching world war III
