Usami is the younger brother of Sho Patrick Usami who is also a mixed martial artist.
Usami learned karate from an early age, and after a while he left martial arts and spent his time in Canada from the age of 15 to 20. He returned to Japan at the age of 20 and started mixed martial arts (MMA). He gained experience in amateur mixed martial arts while training with Kiichi Kunimoto and Kintaro at Paraestra Higashi Osaka and other venues, and made his professional debut as a professional mixed martial artist in 2022.

He basically participates in kickboxing matches without any water. He also said that kickboxing is a "detour," saying, "I have many favorite mixed martial artists, and I want to become famous as an athlete, so I will eventually return to mixed martial arts."
