Any which way you Can 1980

Any Which Way You Can is a 1980 comedy movie, starring Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Geoffrey Lewis, William Smith, and Ruth Gordon. The movie is directed by Buddy Van Horn. This film is the sequel to the 1978 hit comedy film Every Which Way But Loose.
After throwing his fight with Tank Murdock at the end of Every Which Way But Loose, Philo Beddoe is still fighting in underground bareknuckle boxing matches to make money on the side. Philo decides to retire, however, when he realizes that he has started to enjoy the pain. Philo and Orville decide it's time to end his career.
