If you decide to sue your LL, you will be the Plaintiff, and he will be the Defendant. Which means YOU will have the burden of PROVING your case, and he will try to defend himself in ANY WAY POSSIBLE. So, YES, he will bring up the late fees to try to offset your claim of a second rent payment in 1 month. Again, it's not what you "feel" or "believe" , it's what you can PROVE (and what HE can prove). If you "feel or believe" you have a very strong case, GO FOR IT! If you win, GREAT! If you lose, treat it as a learning experience, just as it costs to go to college, with no guarantee of getting a job in your field once you graduate.
