The better fighter would win, regardless of whether or not he was a boxer or a kickboxer. Kicking is more "powerful" (all else being equal) but generally slower. Kicking also makes you vulnerable and off balance. A simple front kick can be the most effective tool available to you to keep a "pressure" fighter away from you, but once again, if you miss, you're off balance and not in the best position to defend yourself.

Also, "kickboxer" is too broad a term. Are you including Muay Thai kickboxers because that makes the question that much more complicated considering that they fight with knees, elbows and kicks to the legs.
