I don't think it looks like either one of those, I'm going to think on it.

I agree, does not look enough like either soursop or black sapote. Think it is something else, but what...?
maybe another sapote

Sure looks like some type of young garcinia to me. If so, I guess that narrows it down to maybe one of a hundred types of plants. LOL

I agree with Doug. It is some type of garcinia. Maybe G. dulcis? Or some other big leafed type like hombroiana?
