So according to YOU two's logic that means Hiruzen is the strongest Hokage before Naruto and it doesn't matter what either of you say because you're not the author.

I haven't read any of the databooks. Can you show some pictures and quotes please? And Hashirama vs. Hiruzen is a debate where Hashirama does possess Sage Mode so I don't really think Hiruzen can do anything about Sage Mode. And even still he has a healing factor way better than even Mitotic Regeneration which allowed Tsunade to get cut in half and still live... somehow. It doesn't really matter the variety of jutsu you have when you can just heal almost instantly from it. Sure Hiruzen can take a lot of punishment but he's never had to deal with the strength Hashirama could dish out.
