iCloud keeps just one backup of a single device - this being incrementally updated each time the backup process runs.


You can delete individual device backups from iPhone (or iPad) settings:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups > [Device Backup by name] > Delete Backup
