Püreviin Dagvasüren (Mongolian: Пүрэвийн Дагвасүрэн; born June 13, 1943 in Batsümber) is a retired Mongolian traditional wrestler with the top rank of "lion". He also participated in the 1972 Summer Olympics as a heavyweight Judoka, but did not win any medal.

The IOC database incorrectly lists Dagvasüren as bronze medalist in the freestyle wrestling welterewight category at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico. In reality, that medal was taken home by fellow Mongolian wrestler Tömöriin Artag.
