"I'm very proud and happy with both awards. It is the recognition of my job. Despite the result of the fight in December that I totally disagree with (a lot of American fans and websites think in the same way, I checked in some web forums), I must say that I had a wonderful 2004 and I will try to make my best this year. This is an excellent opportunity to say to my American fans that I will enter the PRIDE GP in 2005, probably starting on April. I'm going to Japan this month to watch PRIDE 29 and to make the official announcement of my schedule for this year. Thank you very much to the fans and InsideFighting.com, and I hope to meet you all soon and have your support this year.� - Wanderlei Silva
