Anderson Silva called Roy out, he's the one who brought this up originally and has talked repeatedly how its one of his dreams to "box" Roy Jones Jr. As far as I know they've never even talked about it being an MMA fight, how would it make sense for Anderson Silva to call out Roy Jones for an MMA fight?
"Forcing Silva to box"

There is no forcing here. Far from it.
Anderson Silva: "Maybe in the future I can make a boxing match happen, not against Fedor but against Roy Jones Jr. Actually, I'm waiting for that fight."
This is a very strange argument you're making Bilbo.
Even as it regards to your general argument, you hear more about MMA guys wanting to test their boxing skills against boxers (Silva, Nick Diaz, etc.) then you hear boxers calling MMA guys out for boxing matches.
