I think the WC guy lacked Aggression, Entry techniques and Grappling skills.
His first mind should have been attack or intercept attack followed by Fan Sau.

what could he have done better?

The Flow is relentless like a raging ocean with crashing waves devasting anything in its path.
"Kick Like Thunder, Strike Like Lighting, Fist Hard as Stones."
"Wing Chun flows around overwhelming force and finds openings with its constant flow of forward energy."
"Always Attack, Be Aggressive always Attack first, Be Relentless. Continue with out ceasing. Flow Like Water, Move like the wind, Attack Like Fire. Consume and overwhelm your Adversary until he is No More"
easy to say when you haven't got someone throwing shots at you.
Got to agree with Glen. I hate sparring per se in class because it is effectively Wing Chun vs Wing Chun but at some point you have to build your skills by playing with other styles. Training with a guy like the one in the clip with bigger gloves and initially lighter contact would have allowed him to get used to the type of shots he could expect before building up the level of contact and reducing the glove size.He had know idea what to do against the mt guy and you could see it was due to the lack of anything resembling sparring.
10 out of 10 to the guy for carrying on after the first knock down though, that took guts.
A clever man learns from his mistakes but a truly wise man learns from the mistakes of others.

Don't think it is necessarily anything to do with chi sao, a lot of wing chun training seems to build a belief that opponents will attack with single shots and after the first strike the opponent will simply succumb. When they don't attack with single shots or fail to fall after the first counter everything falls apart.

One thing is for sure - the Wing Chun guy certainly had heart! Good on him for having a go, would love to see more videos like this with a more experienced wing chun fighter.
The use of forward pressure like in this video would have been interesting:

The wingchun guy have not developed the momentum handling in a realistic condition. instead, living in a Artificial slow motion, dull, and disintegrate world.
It is like learning to swim while standing on the land , have never in Water experiencing the speed and nature of dealing with water with the whole body , instead of just thinking that slow arm stroke while standing in land can do the magic of floating.

Boxer decks "Wudang disciple" in 7 seconds. (Weibo image)
TAIPEI (Taiwan News) -- Another fake kung fu fighter met his match when he was knocked out by a boxer within seven seconds on May 4, a few days after the infamous match between an MMA gym owner and self-professed "tai chi master."
This time, another faux fighter, who claimed to be a disciple of the Wudang (武當) style of kung fu, is shown in a Weibo video being bounded to the turf like a rag doll in seven seconds by a boxer.
In the grainy video titled "Wudang kung fu master fights for traditional martial arts at a fight club, but doesn't last for seven seconds," a man is see wearing a black kung fu uniform with white boxing gloves, while a bare-chested boxer can be seen with bright green boxing gloves. Not to leave viewers disappointed, the boxer quickly goes to work and punches the pseudo kung fu "master" to a pulp.
The video is the latest in a series of videos showing purported "kung fu masters" taking on mixed martial artists and boxers. The previous being the clash between an MMA gym promoter Xu Xiao-dong (徐曉冬) and a massage therapist turned "tai chi master" Wei Lei (魏雷), which ended with the latter being punched into submission within ten seconds.
Nothing is yet known of the current kung fu fighter to be clobbered on video, but the Taoist Wudang monasteries, which housed famous sword fighters going back many centuries, were ransacked during the cultural revolution from 1966-1976 and the resident monks and martial artists were banished from the area.
After the cultural revolution, like most temples in China, the Wudang monasteries were converted into tourist attractions. Not much evidence exists of the return of the original practitioners of Wudang style after the cultural revolution.
Thus it is difficult to ascertain the validity of the martial arts lineage of a person claiming to represent Wudang style kung fu in modern day China. If he did in fact train at Wudang, it is a tangible sign of the deplorable state of this once fierce fighting system.

That MMA vs Taiji Fight Everyones Talking AboutSuch style versus style videos provide little in the way of quantifiable data as to the effectiveness of a given fighting system since they are individual incidents. Below is a video showing an opposite outcome in which a Wing Chun kung fu fighter smashes a Muay Thai kick boxer into a mirror:
