More aspiring singing stars squared off with a spot in the next round at stake on The Voice Season 7 Episode 10, and left their coaches with some tough decisions.

The Knockout Rounds kick off next week, so this was the final night to either move on or go home for these singers who already beat the odds to make it this far.

Coach Adam Levine had a rough matchup on its hands – in the sense of having to keep only one singer – between Beth Spangler and Mia Pfirrman.

Why pit two four-chair-turners against each other? Because “there’s only room for one belter on my team,” Adam said, and fair enough … but can they BELT!

Their powerful performance of “I Turn To You” by Christina Aguilera left all four coaches praising their battle match-up and Gwen licking her chops.

She was the only one with a steal remaining, and you got the distinct feeling that it was about to get used. The only question was on which singer.

 

Levine ultimately chose Pfirrman, and after making her sweat it out and hug the coaches goodbye, Gwen pressed her button to officially steal Spangler.

Earlier, a strong pairing from Team Pharrell – Brittany Butler against Ricky Manning – resulted in an “On Broadway” duel that left him with a hard choice, too.

Williams ultimately chose Ricky, “just because I’ve seen so much improvement” in the Joaquin Phoenix look-alike so far on The Voice Season 7.

Blake Shelton, meanwhile, faced a tough choice between Kensington Moore and Reagan James, combined age 31, and singing “Team” by Lorde.

In the end, despite praise for both youngsters, Shelton chose James, explaining that there’s no reason other than “I just got to go with my gut on this one.”

The knockout rounds kick off on Monday, with Taylor Swift joining The Voice as advisor. What did you think of the final Battle Round duels? Discuss!
