What I trying to say is that your reasoning "But, his motives of the fight, seems to indicate that the Time Eater has created clones whom Silver knows to lure him and give the Chaos Emerald."

As in terms of motives for fighting Sonic, I have no explanation. However, fact is that there is nothing telling the genesis for Silver's assumptions. From a practical view, I think the game developers just wanted to give Silver a reason to fight, even if it is ridiculous. Personally, I just sum it up to Silver's naïvity. Anyway, I am pretty sure it is something you are not meant to overthink.
