Many people have said that Hashirama is stronger than Hiruzen, and i have a hard time believing that based on the evidence i get from manga and anime. So i wanna take a vote to see who Majority thinks was the strongest.
Hiruzen - Hiruzen was one of the most powerful shinobi in history. In fact, he was so powerful that he was admired as the God of Shinobi in his prime. Even in his old age, he was said to be the strongest Hokage that Konoha ever had as well as the strongest of all the five Kage at the time of his death. Hiruzen was called The Professor, due to his mastery of all forms of shinobi combat, and his vast knowledge of techniques, purportedly knowing all the techniques within Konoha. Even in his old age, his chakra was noted for being very strong, causing a dense effect on the atmosphere when released; furthermore, he was known for having immense reserves of chakra in his youth. He was also the longest living and longest reigning Hokage. Hiruzen also had keen senses, being able to track down the former Hokage under Hashirama Senju's Bringer-of-Darkness Technique.
Hashirama - Hashirama Senju is reputed as the most powerful shinobi of his era, having been called the strongest shinobi as stated by Madara Uchiha. His strength was so greatly respected by the shinobi world that Tobi claimed Hashirama was the one person whom he most admired and detested. Kabuto claimed that Hashirama's might was so vast, there aren't any shinobi in the current era that could match his level of power. As the leader of the Senju clan, Hashirama held tremendous proficiency in many shinobi skills and possessed a considerable understanding of those he did not. He held advanced ability in taijutsu with prodigious speed and strength. In addition, he was well-versed in genjutsu and could perform powerful illusions such as the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique. In the anime he showed proficiency with both kenjutsu and fūinjutsu, carrying a scroll which he used to store a number of large swords for the former and in the latter, his use of the Contract Seal to break Madara's control over Kurama.
