Hayate Usui (?? ???, Usui Hayate) is a Japanese professional mixed martial artist and pro Shooto fighter.
From Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, he now lives and trains in Tokyo at Wajitsu Keishukai's RJW (Real Japanese Wrestling) and Tokyo HQ.
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.
