Daniel Lagman

Daniel Lagman (born July 31, 1991) is a Filipino mixed martial artist. Pyro is a powerful striker with superb conditioning, capable of wearing down even the most seasoned of opponents, and he is quickly making a name for himself as one of the most promising bantamweight fighters in the Asia-Pacific.

Early career
Lagman's first fight outside of the Philippines was at Martial Combat 2 in May 2010. He won via TKO against Ngoo Ditty after taking the Thai fighter down and landing a series of unanswered punches.

Lagman was scheduled to fight former King of the Cage flyweight champion Ryan Diaz at URCC XIX in April 2013 but Diaz pulled out of the fight due to injury.

In June 2012 it was reported that Lagman was being considered for the URCC best fighter of the year along with Team TapouT mate Eduard Folayang and that they had both been offered a one year contract by Legend FC. Folayang decided to sign for One Fighting Championship instead.

In February 2012 Lagman was named number ten on a list of the top ten Bantamweight prospects in the world by Bloody Elbow. His international fights have all taken place at 135 lbs but he holds a URCC title in their Bantamweight division, which has an upper limit of 135 lbs and it is widely assumed that he could compete at 125 lbs should he choose to do so.
