You should still forgive him because no matter how long ago that fight was from he's still your brother. Plus once you forgive him you won't be angry at him anymore.

Some people may think that you should care more about your feeling than valuing. Its more important to value than care. If your dog was drowning but then you see a person drowning as well who would you save? If you save your dog that is feelings because you care about him and you don't want him to die. But if you save the person better than your dog then that means that you value humans. Its always good to value the important things.
