One is RPM based, the other is based on Debian packages. Other than that, not much difference. Choose the one you're most comfortable with.
Personally, I'd choose CentOS over Ubuntu. It's based from RHEL which was designed for server use or intended for such use in a commercial corporate server environment.
Ubuntu to me is or has proven to be a great desktop distribution, I know nothing about it as a server. If I were to go the Debian path, I'd probably just use Debian before Ubuntu.
