Usui debuted in kickboxing six years ago, fighting in J-Network. He started MMA 6 years ago, joining Wajitsu Keishukai WK Sougo. He was inspired to fight when one day, he saw one of his classmates from elementary school fighting in Shooto. He gave MMA a try because it looked cool and interesting. Kickboxing has many restricting rules, but MMA has considerably less, which appealed to him. A fighter could also grow bigger and stronger by training grappling. He now trains as a pro, fighting in Professional Shooto, and GCM/ WK sponsored events.

One of his goals is to surpass training partner Hideki Kadowaki, and although maybe a dream, someday Caol Uno. He also hopes to have more fight opportunities outside Japan.
