Hiruzen has never beaten Hashirama and Tobirama, he has beaten Orochimaru, who was using two brainwashed puppets with Hashirama's and Tobirama's abilities. You can blame Oro for not making full use of the Hokage's abilities they have shown or are supposed to have, but don't give Hiruzen undeserved credit. Did he go against the pollen jutsu? Did he fight against ~25 Wood-Clones? Did he have to deal with Tobirama's Space/Time Techniques? No, he didn't... and worst of all: despite that he had to use a suicide jutsu ( created by minato ) to deal with them, which is hardly a "win" as far as I'am concerned.
And again: Matchups matter... I don't know how often I have to say this. Kisame was overall much more powerful and useful then Gai, yet he lost the battle because his abilities where not suited to deal with a certain rare jutsu used by Gai.
Hiruzen prime woud have all 5 in stats , yes. He has 5 in genjutsu, so does itachi. does that mean they're equal ? no.
I would rather master koto'a than a 1000 genjutsus. As for kishi saying they're equal i cant confirm that. Yes hiruzen was said to be the strongest of 5 kage ( not hokages ) and the strongest of all ( stated by iruka, and that cant be right ). Kishi always come back on his words.
I would Give it to both, but when people say hiruzen > hashirama that brings the shit out of me. like are you serious or are you a fanboy ?
