I am sorry to tell you, but you are completly wrong in my opinion obviously
I will try to back up by opinion:
First reason: Madara
had just accquired EMS and then fought Hashirama, so he could still
lack experience with use of EMS. Prove could be that Kishi showed Madara using Sussano full skeleton form on purpose, he could show Complete form of Sussano already, what a deal ? I am sure MS Madara and MS Izuna has Complete form of Sussano already.
Second reason: Can we be really sure that Madara fought
only Hashi ?, no we can't, if we go to next page then we can see Tobirama and Some Senjuu members in the panel. Strange thing is that Tobirama has
some dirty on his clothers, Did he fight Madara too ?, maybe I can't prove as well as you can't disprove it, it is just asumption.
Third reason: Entire battle was
offscreen, so we don't know how battle looked like, do we ? We don't know if anyone of them had upperhand in this battle and how long, maybe it was changing along with progress of battle. One time supperior Hashirama, few moments later Madara and it could repeat. I didn't see until now Hashirama
getting through Sussano, so he could simply outlast him by greater amount of chakra. It would fit well to words Kishi stated in manga some time ago:
they were rivals and close ot each other level, so if one of them has much more chakra then other even if they are equal in offence and deffence then who would be supperior ?
Obviously someone with
bigger amount of chakra and Senjuu are known for
great amount of chakra and powerfull body so it could fit.
Fourth reason: Madara and Hashirama are
unwounded only tired with Madara being much more. It could suggest us, readers that Madara and Hashirama were equal in deffence and offence so none of them can overcome each other until one of them
run out of chakra.
Fifth reason: Why this battle
lasted twenty hour if Hashirama was so much
supperior to Madara ?, or maybe he wasn't but he knew that he could outlast Madara in amount of chakra.
Only explanation: Hashirama wasn't fighting with killer intent and Madara was fighting with killer intent, but being ex-friends, maybe both of them tried overpower another side without giving death blow to each other.

Thanks, if you disagree please explain why you disagree and back up your statements in manga, then I admit I am wrong
Have a nice day
I agree with your first half of sentence
getting out of here is not solution lol

, let's provide him why you disagree
EDIT:
I want make myself clear, I still consider Hashirama>Madara but no by far gap. They are much closer to each other then people think.
