I don't think Madara was taking Hashirama seriously because Hashirama left from going head on with Madara who was holding back to being pinned with Chakra rods. It doesnt have anything to do with him being an Edo either because even though he wasn't at full power he still had all his techniques avaliable and got pinned like a doll. Kishimoto gave Madara Edo perks to beat Hashirama not to beat Naruto because he would in any state, hence why he showed that Alive Madara almost being as strong as Hashirama just before he had Madara pin him up as an Edo.
