He made his UFC debut Oct. 10th, 2006 at Ortiz vs. Shamrock 3: The Final Chapter with a win over TUF 3 finalist Ed Herman via triangle choke in the first round. On December 30, 2006, at UFC 66, MacDonald defeated Chris Leben with a modified guillotine choke submission in the second round. Other notable wins include victories over UFC veterans Joe Doerksen, Gideon Ray (in MacDonald's home province of Nova Scotia), and Bill Mahood.
