Why does my ex brag about his new girlfriend to me?

Well I highly doubt any of us strangers can give you a precise answer because None of us KNOW your ex boyfriend. HE could be doing it for a NUMBER of reasons.
Positive reasons:
If you two are still on talking terms, its safe to assume that you are still friends. Maybe he considers you his best friend or a close friend and wants to share the happy details of his life.
Negative reasons:
He's trying to make you jealous or hurt you to some degree.
Neutral Reasons:
He still thinks you have feelings for him, and without directly rejecting you, he's letting you know that he's moved on and is happy.
Without knowing him personally, its hard to explain what he is thinking and what his intentions are.
He's trying to get a reaction out of you, he wants to make you jealous.
If he really wanted you he would be with you now (so, I don't think that is the reason).
Some people just like knowing that there is someone out there that cares a lot for them (even if they wouldn't date the person). It's pretty much a ego booster.
because he hasn't gotten over you, there is no other explanation
Not a clue why he would do it (from a sanity perspective) as far as motive is concerned however, it seems like he was just trying to make you jealous.
Regardless, it seems like youve escaped from a highly immature boy. Congrats.

he might do it to make you feel bad, to make you see "hes over you"
because he still has unresolved issues about you and he needs to do something to make him feel better
