Oregon House candidate Matt “The Law” Lindland is not a typical politician. Unlike most office holders, he works his ass off. And in marked contrast to most politicans he’s a first rate businessman as well as one of the best fighters in the world at his weight. He’ll be on hand to open the third location of Team Quest this weekend in Tualatin, Oregon which is southwest of downtown Portland. The original TQ location is in Gresham, Oregon and the second is in Southern California (Murrietta, CA).

The Team Quest West grand opening will take place from 11 to 2 PM Pacific this Saturday. In addition to Lindland, another ‘pretty fair’ fighter by the name of Dan Henderson will be on hand. We hand to mention Lindland first since we’re based in Portland and are Rose City honks.

Here’s the press release:

When: Saturday, October 11, 2008 ? 11a-2p

Where: Team Quest West
20110 SW 112th Ave.
Tualatin, Oregon 97062

What: Looking to expand on the success of its two existing locations, Team Quest will be opening the doors on a West-Portland location this Saturday in Tualatin, Oregon. MMA superstar Matt “The Law” Lindland and UFC title-holder Dan “Hollywood” Henderson will be on hand along with members of the Team Quest Fight Team to perform demonstrations and more!

If you’re a Rose City local, you know where Tualatin is. If you’re not, you’ll first need to get to Portland….and if you live in the area (or in SoCal) and are looking for MMA training believe me these guys know what they’re doing.
