On Night 3 of the Knockouts, The Voice coaches Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton and Pharrell Williams had to narrow down their teams by pairing two teammates against one another at a time to perform solos with a spot at stake in the "Live Playoffs."

In each Knockout, the two artists competing choose their own song. This round shows America and the coaches what type of artist they are or would like to be. Every artist also receives personal attention from his or her coach as well as the universal mentor Nate Ruess.

Adam, Blake, Christina and Pharrell are each allowed only one "Steal" during the Knockouts. At this point in the season, only Christina had a "Steal" left.

Adam matched Barry Minniefield with "What You Won't Do For Love" against Tonya Boyd-Cannon with "I Wish." Adam declared Tonya the winner.

On Christina's team, India Carney performed "Big White Room" against Joe Tolo, who took the stage with a rendition of "One of Us." The winner was India.

Pharrell matched up Jacob Rummell and Lowell Oakley. Jacob sang "Life of the Party," while Lowell performed "My Girl." Pharrell decided that Lowell had won the Knockout.

Christina paired Rob Taylor with Treeva Gibson. Rob sang "Love And Happiness" against Treeva's "Chasing Pavements." In the end, Rob won the Knockout.

On "Team Adam," Joshua Davis sang "Arms of a Woman" against Lexi Davila with "Anything Could Happen." Although Adam determined Joshua had won the Knockout, Christina opted to use her only "Steal" on Lexi.
