The early and unofficial numbers are out, and it looks like the PPV numbers for UFC 103 were somewhere between 400-600K.
According to The Savage Science, these are the numbers for the past few events:

UFC 100: 1.7 million
UFC 101: 1.05 million
UFC 102: 535,000
UFC 103: 400,000-600,000

It's no surprise that their super-card for UFC 100 got the most sales, and fan favorites Anderson Silva and Forrest Griffin highlighted a very successful UFC 101, along with the title fight between Kenny Florian and BJ Penn.

So the UFC is steadily drawing about 500k in PPV buys, and more, when they put huge names on their cards. UFC 103 went up against the Floyd Mayweather-Juan Manuel Marquez fight, which reportedly got over 1 million buys. What's your take on all of this?
