When rolling under a punch should you step out ?

When you are rolling under a punch should you step out and "create an angle" as a matter of course? I've noticed that some people always or nearly always step out after rolling under a punch to create an advantageous position for counter punching. Is this a good or bad idea? Or one of those things that should only be done in certain situations?

Well it's obviously not a bad idea.

And doing it depends on the situation and how advantageous it would be to change your position.

situational imo

its situational. you should definitely work it both ways while maintaining balance. dont get dependent on stepping out, you could be covering a flaw in your balance by doing so ( ie shifting too much weight to the side when slipping )

-i know because i used to do that

Great question.
