I just rewatched this fight and found some similarities with Cotto vs. Margarito. Cotto's style is different from Williams since Cotto is not nearly as busy as Paul is. However, Williams opted to box Margarito and did it very well before starting to fade in the latter rounds. This plan was very similar to Cotto's back in 2008. The biggest difference between Cotto and Williams is the height and reach, but the gameplans were not that different at all.
By the way, I scored this 115-113 Williams. I had Margarito one point down entering the 12th, which was clearly a Williams round.
