A .Net combox is actually a composite control made up of a textbox and a dropdownlist. Use box.Text to get the currently displayed information.

Combobox box = (Combobox)(row.FindControl("[combobox ID]"));
string val = box.Text;

Basically, you're finding the control within its container (row or cell), then casting the control found as a combobox, then accessing its .Text property.
