Ok. I'll still vote for Hades.

Now let's differentiate the Three in terms of fighting abilities.

1. Physical/Hand-To-Hand Battle

Since I've never read anything about them using physical Strength to defeat their enemies. I'll just make this one a tie (though I am inclined to vote for Zeus in this matter).

2. Supernatural Abilities

Zeus: Since Jason and Thalia were still able to channel the power of the sky even without weapons (though they use their swords to direct the attack), we can assume that Zeus can create powerful lightning bolts as strong as atomic bombs. He can fly even without using flying chariots. he can even control the Four Anemoi of the Earth (Boreas, Zephyros, Notus, Eurus) and turn them into horses of his chariot. He can create devastating storms and lightning storms that cause massive destruction on the earth and the sea. And can travel with the speed of the wind and lightning.

Poseidon: Just as water can change to many forms, Poseidon can use his powers in variety of ways. He can create colossal tidal waves and storms at a whim. He can make volcanoes erupt and earthquakes shake the world. He can also control many deities of the sea and water to aid him in battle. Actually, Poseidon has many powers to be mentioned; but I just mentioned those destructive and can be used in this battle arena. Poseidon can actually control the whole world because he is the Earthshaker (Earth) and the Storm Bringer (Sea).

Hades: Hades controls the activities in the Underworld. He may look weak compared to the other two; but he can simply avoid the damages of the Two by just melding into shadows using his Shadow Travel. Just wait for his powerful Symbol of Power.

Lastly,

3. Symbols/Weapons of Power

Zeus's Lightning Bolt

Zeus's Lightning Bolt amplify his lightning abilities. His lightning bolt has the power of the atomic bombs and can even surpass that.

Poseidon's Trident

Poseidon's trident is used to channel the powers of the sea and the earth. He can even shoot powerful waves of energy that even gods would try to dodge just so that they would not get hurt. Using this, he is able to counter and control the powers of the other two (the sky and the earth).

Hades's Helm of Darkness

Hades's helm of darkness is fear itself. He can even meld into shadows using this helm. Being the shadow itself makes him invulnerable to attack. Though he can still do this without the helm just as how Nico demonstate this ability.

Then if you're to say that he can't use anything for attacking, then wait for the last one.

The Sword of Hades

The Sword is made from the Keys of Hades and Stygian Iron. Stygian iron can absorb the essence of monsters, mortals and injure the immortals. Plus, the Keys of Hades can seal someone (even immortals) to the Underworld. So, when Zeus and Poseidon were locked in the Underworld, they cannot use their powers to the fullest so eventually they'll be defeated by Hades. Hades is surely overpowered god. Haha
