Love 'em both, but I gotta say Karloff.
Lugosi's ego blew it for him. Hot off of Dracula, he turned down the role of the Creature in Frankenstein because there was no dialogue. He had no faith in his ability to act without speaking. Lugosi could have ended this debate before it started had he simply taken the role.
Karloff nailed it and became an icon.
And I'm sure all the Whos in Whoville would agree.
