I'm not really convinced there's a big enough difference that it matters
-- particularly on a production system where you intend to stick to
stable, well-tested software. That said, many of the bleeding-edge tools
coming out of Red Hat's Emerging Technologies group (such as libguestfs)
are developed principally for Fedora; if you're looking to live on the
edge, that might be the way to go.
Ubuntu also has their own virtualization group; if you want something
where your distributor makes an effort to keep maintained packages
available (and accept that this means that they'll lag behind latest
upstream a bit), it's not a bad place to be either.
