==Early life and professional career==
Hoye was raised in Monroe, Michigan and Detroit, Michigan. His father, Bobby Hoye (1951-1996) was a professional super middleweight contender. Rico was raised by his grandfather Robert Hoye (1930-1999) a United States Army and Golden Gloves middleweight boxer.
Both his father and grandfather brought him to the gym as an infant and he first competed at 7 years old. As a teenager, he was trained by his grandfather, and he was able to amass a 68-12 amateur record, including junior Olympic titles and Golden Gloves titles in Toledo and Detroit, and was hopeful for an opportunity to make the 1992 Olympic team. At that time, however, his grandfather was injured and wasn't able to train him and he strayed from the sport and became involved in street activity around his Detroit neighborhood. In a 1992 altercation at 17 years old, he shot and killed someone and spent 9 years in prison. While in prison, both his father and grandfather died. Upon his release from prison, he immediately began seriously training and was soon back in the ring competing.〔(Rico Hoye talks career from streaking light-heavy, being frozen out an )〕〔( promoter gary shaw bio page for hoye )〕
