Balroge, definatly. If niether of them could use fire, what would you pick, a sword and a whip, or teeth and claws?Balrogs would whoop the dragons, no contest.
Also, aren't Balrogs former Maiar? Dragons are just beasts created by Morgoth the Enemy. Also, dragons get killed easily. As far as Tolkien told us, the only Balrogs that were killed was the one killed by Gandalf, and a couple in the earlier wars. Most the Maiar and Valar just sealed away somewhere.

The most terrible of the Maiar spirits who became servants of Morgoth were the Balrogs. In the High Elven tongue they were named the Valaraukar, but in Middle Earth they were called the Balrogs, the "demons of might"
