Leland Hardy is profiled on U.S. national network news on this otherwise very busy day in world news. News legend, Sam Donaldson, and ABC Sports veteran, Ray Gandolf, discuss Hardy's varied involvements in sports, entertainment, and the world of high finance. This piece is truly a day in the life of one of New York's busiest, most driven go-getters as the audience starts the day off with Hardy as he runs several grueling miles of road work with his faithful, trusty, yet viscious Pit Bull, Binky. Later he's shown catching up on the day's business news as he reads the Wall Street Journal while making his way to the Wall Street investment bank, Bear Stearns, where he handled investments for wealthy individuals and institutions at the time of the broadcast. Later, excerpts of feature films and television commercials in which Hardy starred are shown, along with jaw droppingly riveting footage of Hardy boxing professionally at the "World's Most Famous Arena," Madison Square Garden. This very interesting footage concludes with the newscaster making strikingly prophetic comments about how much a then on-the-rise, young Mike Tyson needs the financial advice and counsel of a Leland Hardy.
