He has never had a better opportunity. He has been calling the media "fake news" for 3+ years now - he can finally prove it, definitively.
All he has to do is release his tax returns.
Simple.

It’s already been proven lol.
Why would he do that? How would he knows it’s not a scheme to get him to release his tax returns? Why do Trump’s tax returns matter, anyway? Shouldn’t we be talking about who is more able to get this economy back up and running?
And the left wants to go chasing down, yet another, rabbit hole.

It is incumbent on the NYT to produce the original documents they used, not for Trump to produce anything to discredit them. Once the NYT produces the documents for everyone to see, then it's Trump's turn.
The way you are putting it, is that the NYT has made a bunch of unsubstantiated claims and said they have proof but provided none, and it's now up to Trump to disprove those claims. That ain't the way it works.

BLUEXITA Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red
Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.
It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.
This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

I'm not putting it either way. I'm just saying Trump has the power to provide clarity, and to prove not just that this claim is wrong, but that it really is the fake news he has been claiming for years.
Why doesn't he? He promised to release his tax returns. What is stopping him?
It isn't up to Trump. That's not how such claims are resolved. If you claim Trump is horribly in debt, owes taxes, and the like and say you have documents to prove it--which is exactly what the NYT has done--then you need to present those documents for everyone to see. Only then does Trump have to respond. Until then, you're working on hearsay and fantasy.
Only in high school with rumors started by a cheerleader are claims that have no proof required to be rebutted by the poor sap that is the target of them. In the adult, real, world that doesn't fly.
