I also thought of maprang when i first saw it in the store, but they were selling it as a mango,  could it be a maprang advertised as a mango ??
The fruits size was around the same as a big chicken egg, or slightly bigger.

Florigon, by the pics on the web looks to be bigger in size and rounder to me, not a mango expert but that is what i got comparing the pics....
