My advice, grab either CentOS
http://www.centos.org/ or OracleLinux
http://mirrors.wimmekes.net/pub/iso/
If the latter, configure it to use public-yum for free updates
https://blogs.oracle.com/wim/entry/setting_up_oracle_linux_6
And then, add the official MySQL yum repos.

https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/
so you can get faster MySQL than the forks and avoid the issues discussed
here

This will also allow you to experiment with the 5.7 release and install the
latest greatest MySQL 5.7 dev releases
OR, go CentOS.
Using Fedora is also possible, but as many of the people here have already
commented, you'll have to deal with more frequent upgrades...
I personally have both, on different systems.

PS: OL 7 beta is out if you fancy testing it and comparing it with Fedora
and/or CentOS
