Lawler remains the only man to defeat MacDonald in over five years inside the Octagon. The Tristar Gym representative has won all eight of his bouts in the UFC dating back to April 2011.
Thompson is coming off the biggest win of his career, a sensational first-round knockout of former welterweight king Johny Hendricks in February. Since dropping a decision to Matt Brown four years ago, the South Carolinian has won six straight with four coming via knockout.
