La Cage: How the Netflix series ends? Explanation of the ending

Available on Netflix from November 8th, La Cage is the new series from Franck Gastambide. After Valide, the director offers five episodes of fiction based on the world of MMA. A discipline still little known to the general public.

Cage, played by Melvin Boomer, follows the journey of Taylor Keita, a young man who has not been given the slightest gift by life. Determined to overcome this, he is counting on the sport to succeed.

Yes, but no one really believes in him and he will have to prove his talent again and again. Even in the last minutes of the first season, nothing is won for our hero. Be careful, I recommend you go if you haven’t watched it yet, because we’re going to decipher the end of the series with you!

How do we know the end of The Cage on Netflix?

In every episode, Taylor struggles with a particularly harmful environment. No one really wants him, and so does his best friend, Nico (Antoine Simon), even if he’s acting more shady.

Clearly jealous of his friend’s success, but also of his romantic relationship with Elena (Edwige Ahonto), he can no longer support his rise to power. And when Taylor wins her final battle with Ibrahim (Bosch) at the end of the last episode, it’s too much for her.

Instead of rejoicing in his victory, he then sets out to take her down. Remember, on his way out of the locker room, where Taylor is celebrating his first belt, Niko is met by doping control agents who come at the most unexpected moment to do a test to confirm that the fight took place within the rules.

Then he comes up with a diabolical idea that could hurt his friend’s career: canceling it without his knowledge before the exam to nullify his victory. For this, Nico asks the agents to come back later and let Taylor enjoy her happiness.

In fact, he takes advantage of this short time and adds a doping product to his best friend’s water bottle. If we can still wonder if it was at the end of the maneuver when he joins Taylor and hands him the drink, we immediately know he didn’t hesitate because his fingers are covered in powder.

A potential second season of La Cage?

Therefore, it is clear that the test by the agents will be positive, disqualifying Taylor even though he won the fight without cheating. How will he prove his innocence? See you in a potential second season cage to find out more.
