But the actor forgot to mention Creed director Ryan Coogler and costar Michael B. Jordan, and some big entertainers were quick to correct his mistake on Twitter:
#waitwaitwait, Ryan Coogler & Michael B Jordan, Thanks for acting with me!!! Loved Sly but…

But in true Rocky fashion, Sly got back up and corrected his mistake off camera.
According to award show attendees, the actor returned to the stage during the commercial break to thank Coogler, Jordan, and Tessa Thompson for “doing all the work” in the film:
Music started but Sly stopped it to thank Ryan Coogler. “You did it all, I just hung on for dear life.” #GoldenGlobes
