Answer
I am not clear if you were hoping they would mate?  If so, then I suspect that the girl is not in heat so therefore they are most likely going to fight as they are strangers to each other.

You need to be sure that your girl is in heat at least 2 days and 'treading' with her back feet and putting her tail to one side, before introducing her to the male.
