Boxer Victor Ortiz has been knocked out of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.

Ortiz — paired with Lindsay Arnold, the celebrity dance competition’s newest professional — had routinely been in danger of elimination. But Tuesday marked the final round.

The duo were joined by The Bachelor’s Sean Lowe and Peta Murgatroyd as the team with the lowest overall scores, calculated by a combinations of judges’ scores and viewer votes.

Other celebrities remaining in the competition Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman, NFL star Jacoby Jones, country singer Kellie Pickler, comedian Andy Dick, actor Ingo Rademacher, and actress/singer Zendaya.

Olympic figure skater Dorothy Hamill withdrew because of an injury; country singer Wynonna Judd, reality star Lisa Vanderpump, and comedian D.L. Hughley were previously eliminated.
