On 8 August 2016, during an exhibition game against
Kunlun Red Star, Ryspayev started a brawl that caused the game to get cancelled after just three minutes. The brawl began when Ryspayev punched
Tomáš Marcinko as he was checking him, and escalated when Ryspayev decided to attack the other Red Star players, seemingly at random. On 27 December 2017, the lifetime ban on Ryspayev was lifted. ==References==
