You don't really have a basis to fight it, as it's a failure to provide documentation when requested, not a ticket for an unregistered vehicle. Proving you were in fact registered at the time they requested the document does nothing as they already know you were.
You can probably plea to get a lesser fine, but I don't think you have a chance of fighting it.
Those that I've known get the same ticket for failing to provide proof of insurance are unable to get it thrown out by providing proof after the fact. That's only useful if for some reason they give you a ticket for having no insurance, tow your vehicle, etc, but in fact you did have coverage.
There is the odd case where I nice officer will give you the option of coming to the station and proving you now have the document in the car, and then void the ticket, but that's pretty rare.
