How much would you realistically pay to see gladiators fight to the death?

To get some moral weight off your shoulders, you can assume they're criminals, paying a debt or actually a competitor who wants glory. Not just one match but a UFC layout where they'll have several matches with a main event.
Would 2k be too much to ask to watch in person? Like $200 PPV?
I remember reading the chocolate wars back in the gap and liked the idea of how they drew "blows" dictated by the crowd. Except we got to vote on weapons. For each person we'd get to choose.
Anyway. What's the most you'd realistically pay to see it? Added bonus. Who would you like to see fight to the death?

I would stream it illegally through frsports.

I would pay to see Trump versus Sharpton. Win Win.

If the fights were anything like the fights in the show Sparatcus I would pay $100 for PPV and pretty much anything to attend a live event.

It would be awesome and would put UFC and boxing out of business.

I'd like to see the fricked up people who hurt kids from some of the news stories posted on here fight each other with pocket knives.

I'd pay to see that.

I would not pay or watch. I don't watch Faces of Death or anything else like that FWIW. However, I bet you could charge north of 2k for a ticket.

Watching Gladiator right now too, eh? 
I would pay the same amount as any other normal sporting event as long as I believed those participating truly deserved to die.

Not a fricking thing

I wouldn't watch it much less pay for it. Those bullfighters that stick swords in bulls piss me off. I'm routing for the bull to put a horn in their arse.

If they fought/battled/gladiated to the death, I would actually be willing to pay the very high PPV prices. I'd probably go $200, if it included a few undercards.

A lot

Y'all are all fricked up.

I imagine a world where a billionaire sets up a fight-to-the-death tournament where every loser's (i.e., KIA) family gets a consolation prize - say, $100,000; a life insurance bonus of sorts, to entice noble, family-oriented poors to enter - and the winner gets $100 million. Or, hell, $1 billion. The tournament would involve 64 (or 128 or 256, whatever) entrants and would take place over the course of one year, during which time fighters would have access to whatever training facilities and coaches they needed, all paid for by the tournament sponsor. An annual subscription to the fight channel could be made for $100 and could be watched anywhere in the world.
If that were the case, you'd only need 10M subscribers worldwide to cover the $1B prize. This thing would easily generate an enormous profit.
