Next opponent of Roy Jones? Why?

Markus Beyer(34-3-1) is named as probable next opponent of Roy Jones. Beyer(a former super middleweight WBC champ) finished his career in 2006 after being defeated by Mikkel Kessler(KO 3), but now he's eventually returned and his next scheduled fight is against Murad Mahmudov
 2008-03-14. I can't really understand this Jones' decision, since Beyer 
is neither a champ nor a legend. After RJJ beat Tito Trinidad i thought he'd be looking either for belts or legendary opponents. Jones' did history many times and anything seemed possible. I expected to hear anything: Pavlik, Calzaghe, Taylor, Hopkins, Oscar De La Hoya, Mayweather, Tyson, Holyfield, Valuev... anything, but name... of one of former champs, who was destroyed in 3 rounds by the guy(Kessler) who was beaten by the guy(Calzaghe) that's now counted as very good. What does Roy want? This fight ain't gonna make much money, ain't gonna make him a champ... The only thing that Roy gets is real chance to finish Beyer quiсkly by KO. Why, Roy?!! Why?!!!!!
