I would agree that the Sigma has better bokeh. However, I've tried a couple locally and had some focus issues which my Canon f1.4 does not have. If I could find a Sigma that would focus well, both near and far, when shooting close to wide open, I would go with the Sigma. Until then, I am using my Canon f1.4 and watching closely for the new version which is rumored now.
It still seems a bit odd that people today are buying a lens based on what it looks like when out of focus, but that's the case. Now that people are paying attention to this quality, the manufacturers are increasing blade count and rounding them, which seems to give smoother out of focus content.
Its an area of improvement you will most likely find in the newer lenses.
