Default The Best way to Block an Uppercut??

What is the best way to block an uppercut? If you have both hands up near the center of your face.

Trying to use your elbows to block it - leaves too much room open.

Trying to block it with your palm - way too narrow a target and lots of room to miss.

There must be a good way? I know it's hard to defend but it can't be impossible?

Footnote: Props and shout out to the original thread author "Madskilz", he posted this in the MMA fourmn and I wanted to see how it would do here in the boxing forumn.
