Can't go wrong with either really, each has it's highs and lows. Pick the one you enjoy more.

Well, if you really want to tank, you should work on both anyways. Along with some of the other classes for the cross-class skills.

Paladin to 22 is almost a must for provoke. You can do without it, technically, but it helps a lot. Paladin to 8 gives you flash. Right, it is gladiator still at that point.

Warrior gives foresight at 2 and Bloodbath at 8.

A bit of monk will help Warrior. A bit of White Mage will help Paladin.

In the end, it is really preference. Both classes are good and have things that they are good at.
