he does stuff for money basically regardless of his beliefs. he did a charity event for IDF or Israel or whatever and he threw his fight with whatever Paul brother (all fights vs pro or ex pro fighters are fixed btw), both to make money. When accused of throwing the fight Tyson said something like "we are all dust", which basically means it doesn't matter.
I don't consider myself a Tyson/Paul truther, but yeah, there was a split second there in the first round where he looked like he was going to lay into him. Maybe not Iron Mike style, but some distant metallic cousin, like ruthenium or maybe vanadium, which would still have been more than enough to rock Jake's shit.
