If you do not follow it immediately with a bigger enmity-generating hit, you will lose the mob as soon as DPS touches it, or a big heal goes off.
This is true if your threat-lead is small. I've had poor taunts and had nothing special queued up ready to follow the Provoke, and it's fine because not many healers or dps are even close to the tanks. With that said, if your off-tank keeps doing a max dps rotation and you have a poor Provoke, you will lose threat to them. It's very important to have moves ready to hit as soon as you Provoke so your offtank can switch stances and dps freely and not worry about slowing down or halting dps altogether.
