During this round, contestants from the same coaching team battled against each other, with only the winner moving forward to the next stage, while the others faced elimination.
Among the eliminations, Jamison Puckett was sent home from Team Bublé, while Team Gwen bid farewell to Cozy Len and Austyn Stancil. Creigh Riepe exited from Team Reba, and Team Snoop saw Brad Sample leave the competition.

Eliminated Contestants from Battles Round 3
Team Bublé: Jamison Puckett
In a fierce Battle, Michael Bublé had Jamison Puckett go head-to-head with Shye. For their performance, Bublé chose Justin Bieber’s “Love Yourself,”revealing his friendship with the Canadian artist.
While Puckett infused his rendition with unique vocal flourishes, Shye opted for a more straightforward delivery. In the end, Bublé saw greater promise in the 17-year-old Shye and declared him the winner.
Team Reba: Creigh Riepe
During this episode of The Voice, Team Reba had two notable matchups. The first featured powerhouse singers Danny Joseph and Deon Jones, who performed the iconic “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World”by James Brown.
Reba faced a tough choice but ultimately favored Danny Joseph for his “raw energy”and distinct presence, setting him apart from the other contestants. Just as Deon started to leave the stage, Gwen quickly hit her button to claim him for her team.
Later on, Reba paired Lauren-Michael Sellers against Creigh Riepe with a performance of “You Will Be Found”from Dear Evan Hansen. Ultimately, Sellers delivered a poignant performance that led him to victory, resulting in Riepe’s exit from the competition.
Team Snoop: Brad Sample
For the third round of Battles, Snoop Dogg matched up two fathers as contestants. He selected Lionel Richie’s “Stuck On You”for the clash between Brad Sample and Jake Tankersley.
After a heartfelt performance from both, Snoop chose Jake Tankersley, leading to Brad Sample’s elimination from the competition.
Team Gwen: Austyns Stancil
By the conclusion of episode 9, Gwen Stefani had secured three contestants moving forward. The night began with a battle between Cozy Len and Felsmere, where Gwen selected her favorite track, “Summer Breeze”by Seals & Crofts. Ultimately, Felsmere was deemed the winner of this face-off.
The next matchup featured Austyn Stancil against Jose Luis, who sang Sam Smith’s “Lay Me Down.”Luis’s strong performance earned him the victory, and with Cozy Len available, all three coaches pressed their steal buttons, creating a thrilling cliffhanger for viewers.
